About Famous Bonanza Casino

Famous Bonanza is a Colorado-licensed casino at 107 Main Street in Central City, Colorado, operated by G.F. Gaming. The property opened in 1992 — the first year of legal casino gaming in Colorado following Amendment 4 — and runs 208 gaming machines and 4 table games, including Roulette, with a restaurant, self-parking, and street parking on site. The Bonanza Casino Player’s Club rewards regular guests with points. The minimum gambling age is 21, and gaming is regulated by the Colorado Division of Gaming. Phone: (303) 582-5914; email: info@gfgaming.com; website: famousbonanza.com.

Central City’s Main Street gaming corridor runs through the Gilpin County seat’s National Historic Landmark district at approximately 8,500 feet of elevation, roughly 35 miles west of Denver via I-70 and Colorado 119. The 107 Main Street address places Famous Bonanza in the heart of the Central City casino strip, adjacent to the Central City Opera House and the Victorian commercial architecture that defines the historic district.

G.F. Gaming operates Famous Bonanza alongside Easy Street Casino at 116 Main Street — just steps away — both sharing the (303) 582-5914 phone number and the info@gfgaming.com email address. The shared contact infrastructure indicates the two properties operate under unified G.F. Gaming management, with separate brands and physical addresses but coordinated back-office operations. Promotions and events for Famous Bonanza are at famousbonanza.com and on the Famous Bonanza Facebook and Instagram accounts.

Table Games and Gaming Floor

Famous Bonanza runs 4 table game positions including 3 Card Poker, Blackjack, and Roulette, alongside 208 gaming machines — slot machines and video poker.

Roulette is available at Famous Bonanza under Colorado’s commercial gaming authorization since 2009. The absence of Craps in our directory data is notable — confirm whether Craps is offered at famousbonanza.com or (303) 582-5914. At 4 table positions, Famous Bonanza is a smaller table game operation, but the inclusion of Roulette alongside Blackjack and 3 Card Poker provides the core Colorado commercial table game menu in a compact format.

The 208-machine slot floor is a mid-range size for the Central City market. Video poker and slot machines run alongside the table game floor in the standard Colorado Limited Gaming configuration. Current table minimums are at famousbonanza.com.

Bonanza Casino Player’s Club

Famous Bonanza operates the Bonanza Casino Player’s Club loyalty program. Members earn points through slot machine and table game play, redeemable for casino benefits at the property. Promotions and events are active at famousbonanza.com and on the Famous Bonanza Facebook and Instagram accounts. The Player’s Club ties into the G.F. Gaming operational network.

Dining, Parking, and G.F. Gaming Operations

A restaurant is on site at Famous Bonanza, with self-parking and street parking available. The restaurant is confirmed in our promotions and dining data, though specific hours and menus should be confirmed at famousbonanza.com or by calling (303) 582-5914. No hotel is associated with Famous Bonanza.

The G.F. Gaming operational connection between Famous Bonanza and Easy Street Casino (116 Main Street) means visitors can expect a consistent operational approach across both properties. The shared phone (303) 582-5914 and email info@gfgaming.com serve as central contact points for both venues. Street parking on Central City’s Main Street is supplemented by self-parking at the property, though weekend demand from Front Range visitors can make both competitive.
