feaster

Gorger at tables

A feaster is someone who feasts—one who participates in or enjoys a lavish meal or celebration.

The word suggests hearty indulgence rather than mere eating: The feasters lingered at the table long into the night.

It can also describe someone who habitually enjoys abundant food and drink.
