One important part of Spiritfarer’s management component is keeping Stella’s passengers fed and happy. Each passenger has a unique set of likes and dislikes, plus one food dish that they enjoy above all others. So it’s important to give them their favorite foods.
This Spiritfarer guide is here to make the culinary process much easier. If you offer a dish a passenger likes, they’re happiness increases. The happier passengers are, the more they’ll help out around the ship, doing things like collecting and processing materials.
There’s no actual penalty for giving a passenger a disliked dish. They just don’t accept them.
But figuring out what each passenger likes and what they’re favorite foods are is a guessing game. Except it isn’t thanks to our Spiritfarer favorite foods guide.
We’ve outlined every passenger’s favorite food here and since you can’t feed them the same dish twice in a row, we’ve also included their preferred food types so you can keep them happy at all times.
Spiritfarer Favorite Foods Guide
Alice
Alice Favorite Food
- Veggie Pot-Pie — Flour and Vegetable or Mushroom. You won’t get this for a while, since it requires the Windmill.
Alice Likes
- Old-Fashioned Food — Shellfish Stew is the easiest; just cook one of the shellfish you can find on the side of the ship.
- Desserts — Like with Summer, Poached Fruit is the easiest and earliest dessert you can offer Alice.
Alice Dislikes
- Exotic Food.
- Stimulants (e.g. tea, coffee).
Astrid
Astrid Favorite Food
- Noodle Soup — Just cook rice flour. You won’t get this for a while, since it requires the Windmill.

- Plain Food — Grilled Fish and Plain Rice are the easiest, with ingredients in abundance.
Astrid Dislikes

Atul Favorite Food
- Pork Chops — You’ll learn this recipe as part of a quest, but you can’t finish it until you get to Furogawa and purchase Pork from the shop there.

Atul Dislikes
- Nothing. Feed him whatever you’ve got on hand, and he’ll be happy.
Bruce and Mickey
Despite being a team, Bruce and Mickey share the same tastes.

- Fine Dining — You’ll have access to more choices by the time you find Giovanni, so things like Squid Skewer (cook a Squid) and Bouillabaisse (Fish + Vegetable or Mushroom) are options if you run out of Shrimp.
- Stimulants — Tea and Coffee.
Giovanni Dislikes
- Eggy foods.
- Carbs.
Gustav
Gustav Favorite Food
- Surströmming — Catch a herring, and put it in the Cellar. The Cellar is part of the final ship features upgrade, so it’s out of reach for a little while.
Gustav Likes
- Exotic Food — Plenty to choose from here, but Fish Curry (Fish + Rice or other Grain) and Paella (Shellfish + Rice or other Grain) are the easiest by far.

Stanley
Stanley Favorite Food
- French Fries — Cook Potato and Fat together. You won’t get either of these for a while, so stick to liked foods until you’ve got the Crusher to make fat.
Stanley Likes
- Breakfast Food — Egg Sunny Side Up (just cook an egg) or Cereal Bowl (grain + dairy) fit the bill here.
- Desserts — Poached Fruit (just cook a piece of fruit or a berry) is the easiest
