About Us

A busy bar scene at the Elks Lodge with patrons enjoying drinks.

Rated 4.7 out of 5 stars by 43 members and guests, the Eagle River Elks Lodge on North Eagle River Loop Road has earned that reputation one honest plate of comfort food and one genuine conversation at a time. Members who joined as recently as 2020 describe it as the kind of place that immediately feels like home, a spot where you can grab a drink, share a meal, and actually know the people sitting next to you.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has always tied its identity to community giving, and this lodge lives that out. Visitors from across the country, including guests who have stopped in from as far as New Jersey, consistently remark on how warmly they're welcomed. That reputation doesn't happen by accident. It's built by members who show up, volunteer, and treat every face at the bar like a neighbor.

Situated along the scenic Eagle River Loop Road with Alaska's mountains framing the backdrop, this lodge offers something increasingly rare: a real third place that belongs to the people who use it.

What We Offer

The lodge opens every day of the week, giving members a reliable place to land after work or on weekends. Monday through Thursday doors open at 4:00 PM, Friday and Saturday at 2:00 PM for a longer social afternoon, and Sunday at 8:00 AM, making it the only day you can start your morning here.

Inside, expect comfort food done right, a full bar with a welcoming atmosphere, and regular events that range from casual social nights to community fundraisers. The kitchen draws repeat visits for its honest, satisfying menu, and the bar is the kind where the staff remembers your usual order.

Beyond the food and drinks, membership opens the door to Elks charitable programs, youth initiatives, veteran support efforts, and a nationwide network of lodges you can visit when traveling. Whether you're a longtime member or someone curious about joining, the Eagle River Lodge makes the process straightforward and the welcome immediate.

"I’ve loved this place since I became a member in 2020. Whether you want this place to be a place to socialize, your favorite watering hole, a nice comfort food meal, or to help out and give to the community, it’s all here! Plus a lot of great people. It has that old-fashioned small town feel to it with a meeting room much like you have at those Lion’s Club and town meeting organizations."

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
