About Us

A scenic view outside the Elks Lodge at sunset.

Travelers passing through have pulled off Maryville Road and left raving about two things: the grounds and the food. That's not an accident. The members of this lodge take real ownership, from the manicured landscape outside to the kitchen turning out pizza that holds its own against any dedicated pizza place in the metro area. When strangers arrive and feel like regulars within minutes, that's the Elks culture doing exactly what it was built to do.

The Granite City Elks Lodge is a chapter of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, one of America's oldest and most active fraternal organizations. Founded on the principles of charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity, the lodge channels those values into real community action: scholarship funds for local students, support for veterans, and events that bring the neighborhood together year-round.

Sit down on New Year's Eve and you'll understand why the rating sits at 4.4 out of 101 reviews. The food is genuinely good, the bands are worth staying for, and the people around you are the kind who remember your name next time. This is a place run by members who care, and it shows in every detail.

What We Offer

The lodge hosts live music events that draw a crowd well beyond the membership, with bands that keep the floor busy into the night. Private event rentals make the space a popular choice for celebrations, reunions, and organizational gatherings throughout the Granite City area.

The kitchen produces a pizza that regulars and road-trippers alike call a genuine surprise, along with a full menu of crowd-pleasing food served during events and lodge nights. The bar keeps things social without pretense.

Beyond the food and entertainment, the lodge runs community programs including scholarship awards, veterans outreach, and charitable giving that reaches directly into the surrounding community. Membership opens the door to all of it, including reciprocal access to Elks lodges across the country, which means a warm welcome whether you're a local or just passing through on I-270.

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
