Hi everyone,

I have heard phrases like movie goer. I was wondering if I could use goer wih other words like cafe goer or bar goer.

I'm not a café goer. I prefer going to restaurants with my friends on the weekend
 
I think your English is probably good enough to do that, yes. You can be creative to some extent like this, but in writing you should hyphenate to make the compound clear: festival-goers
 
I think some activities are more common than others with this form. One common one that comes to mind is 'church goer', especially with the negative.

He isn't much of a church goer.
