Welcome to Denver

Denver, Colorado

Chefs, restaurateurs, producers and eaters have all flocked to the greater Denver area, making it a hub for a new and innovative food movement. Denver chefs regularly collaborate with local producers, nonprofits, visiting chefs and other restaurants to produce creative and exciting events. In 2016, Denver was ranked #3 in hottest food cities in the U.S. and as the #1 best place to live in America. Come taste and explore this vibrant city!

“While New Orleans has Creole, Portland has food trucks and Chicago has modernist cuisine, it has long been pondered what the hallmark of Denver’s food scene is. In my opinion, Denver’s claim to fame should be community: its sense of community among chefs, bartenders, and restaurateurs working together to elevate the city’s cuisine. This camaraderie is not found in any other city in the U.S. and makes it the perfect choice to host Slow Food Nations. Slow Food has always been about building community through food. What better city to showcase that than Denver?”
