About Us

On Lincoln Avenue in Cincinnati's Evanston neighborhood, the Elks Lodge has been doing something most places only talk about: making people feel genuinely at home. Members and guests don't just stop by for a drink. They come back because the people here actually know your name, ask about your family, and mean it.

The reviews say it plainly. One member put it simply: "they truly gave me love." That's not something you manufacture with a marketing campaign. It's built over years of showing up, of Friday nights that stretch later than planned, of handshakes that turn into friendships. BPOE has always stood for Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and this lodge lives up to every word of that.

Situated at 827 Lincoln Ave, the lodge draws a loyal crowd from across Cincinnati who come for the community, stay for the atmosphere, and keep coming back for both. With a 4.1-star rating from 37 honest reviews, the reputation here is earned one good night at a time.

What We Offer

The lodge keeps things simple and does them well. Drink prices are consistently called out in reviews as one of the best deals in the city, so you can settle in without watching the clock or your wallet. The bar is a gathering point, not just a counter, and the regulars make sure newcomers feel like they've been coming for years.

Beyond the bar, the Elks Lodge hosts community events, member meetings, and private gatherings that bring Cincinnati families and friends together under one roof. Whether your group is planning a celebration or just looking for a reliable spot to connect on a weeknight, the lodge offers the kind of flexible, welcoming space that's increasingly hard to find.

Membership with the Elks Lodge also connects you to a national network of charitable initiatives, local scholarship programs, and veteran support efforts. Joining means more than a membership card. It means being part of something that actually does good in the community.

A Proud Heritage

The Elks gave America
Flag Day.

Long before it was a national observance, the Order set aside June 14th to honor the flag. Patriotism has always been one of our cardinal principles, and every lodge meeting still closes the same way it has for over a century.

“To our absent members.” — the Eleven O’Clock Toast
