The Chautauqua Café
NOW OPEN!
As part of our effort to further historic preservation at Chautauqua, we have recently reconstructed an outdoor pavilion between the Dining Hall and the General Store. The pavilion, known as the “Chautauqua Café,” was built in the late 1800s and was reconstructed using historic photos. Guests and visitors can grab a coffee, sandwich, salad or ice cream from the adjoining General Store and enjoy this open-air seating area year-round. The Café will also soon be available for a limited number of private events.
Shop Online
Chautauqua merchandise (available only from The General Store) is now available from the comfort of your couch. Show off the hoodies, hats, water bottles, mugs and more with pride wherever you are, or get them shipped far and wide to everyone on your list.
As with all General Store items, you can feel extra good knowing that every sale supports the continued preservation and programming of the Colorado Chautauqua nonprofit.
