A Grand Meal in the Devereux Ballroom
Every year, Thanksgiving at Hotel Colorado feels a little bit like stepping into a storybook. The historic halls glow with holiday warmth, families gather from near and far, and the aroma of a festive feast drifts through the building. This season, the tradition continues with the Annual Thanksgiving Buffet, hosted in the beautifully appointed Devereux Ballroom. It is one of the most anticipated dining events of the year, and it is the perfect way to enjoy a relaxed, memorable holiday meal without lifting a single roasting pan.
On Thursday, November 26, 2026, guests are invited to settle in for a generous buffet filled with all the classic Thanksgiving favorites. Seating is available from 11 AM to 5 PM, giving families plenty of flexibility to choose the time that fits their holiday plans. The ballroom will be dressed for the occasion, offering a warm and elegant setting for a leisurely afternoon of dining and celebration.
Reservations required. Please call 970-928-3766.
The buffet begins with a comforting soup station featuring seasonal flavors that set the tone for the meal. Guests can enjoy creamy butternut squash with roasted pumpkin seeds or a rich tomato parmesan bisque, both perfect for a crisp November day. Nearby, the shrimp cocktail station offers chilled shrimp and a bright citrus horseradish sauce.
The antipasto and salad selections bring color and variety to the table. Mediterranean-inspired bites, marinated vegetables, artisan cheeses, and a display of cured meats create a beautiful spread. Fresh greens, spinach salad, and a hearty butternut and kale combination offer something for every palate.
Of course, Thanksgiving would not be complete without the traditional entrées. The buffet features roast turkey with gravy, carved ham with a sweet cherry accent, and lemon baked salmon with a bearnaise sauce. These dishes are prepared by the Hotel Colorado culinary team, known for their thoughtful approach to seasonal dining and their commitment to quality ingredients.
Guests will also find a generous assortment of accompaniments. Traditional cornbread dressing, apple almond bread dressing, whipped potatoes, roasted root vegetables, candied yams, green bean casserole, mandarin cranberry sauce, and soft yeast rolls round out the holiday table. It is the kind of spread that encourages second helpings and long conversations.
The dessert station is a sweet finale filled with holiday favorites and indulgent treats. Guests can enjoy classic pies like pecan, apple, key lime, and pumpkin, along with a pair of standout cheesecakes – a silky New York style and a rich chocolate turtle creation. The beloved Colorado Creamy Ice Salad adds a nostalgic touch, while fresh fruit offers a bright, refreshing finish to the feast.
The Thanksgiving Buffet is priced at $90 per adult and $32 per child prior to tax and service charge. Reservations are required and can be made by calling 970-928-3766. A credit card is needed to hold the reservation, and payment will be charged in full 72 hours before the event.
