About Us

Exterior view of the Elks Lodge building.
Exterior view of the Elks Lodge building.

At 235 2nd St NE, the Elks Lodge 1944 has built a reputation that shows up in every review: people walk in as strangers and leave feeling like members of something worth belonging to. Rated 4.7 out of 5 stars across 115 reviews, this lodge earns that score the old-fashioned way, through real hospitality and a space that is kept clean, well-maintained, and genuinely welcoming to visiting Elks from across the country.

The building itself reflects the care of its members. Guests who have stopped in for everything from business meetings to wedding receptions consistently note how well the lodge has been preserved. There is a full bar, a food service window stocked with crowd-pleasing fare, and a room large enough to host a real celebration without feeling cramped. Karaoke nights pull in regulars and newcomers alike, giving the place an energy that most bars in Cleveland, Tennessee simply cannot match.

If you are a visiting Elk, a quick call ahead is the move. The kitchen window can get busy, and you will want to make sure you are not arriving after service wraps. That small tip aside, the door is open, the people are genuine, and the lodge is exactly what a fraternal organization should be at its best.

What We Offer

Elks Lodge 1944 runs a full calendar of events and amenities that go well beyond a standard bar experience. The lounge is stocked and staffed for everything from a quiet weeknight drink to a full-scale private event. Karaoke nights draw a loyal crowd, and the energy in the room on those evenings is the kind that keeps people coming back week after week.

The lodge hosts private events including wedding receptions, club meetings, and community gatherings. The space is large, clean, and configurable. Food service is available through the kitchen window, with solid, satisfying options that pair well with the bar's drink selection. Members and guests both rave about the friendliness of the staff, and that warmth is the throughline across every type of event the lodge handles.

Visiting Elks members are always welcome. The lodge actively embraces its role in the broader Elks network, making travelers feel at home from the moment they walk through the door. Whether you are renewing your membership, attending a lodge meeting, or just stopping in for a cold drink after a long day, Lodge 1944 delivers the kind of experience the Elks organization was built on.

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
