About Us

Entrance of Merritt Island Elks Lodge with signage.

At Lodge #2650 on Sykes Creek Parkway, the regulars know each other by name, the bar ladies know your drink, and the kitchen turns out meals worth showing up early for. That 4.7-star reputation didn't come from fancy decor. It came from people who actually like being around each other.

The lodge sits right on Merritt Island, minutes from the Space Coast's waterways and launch pads, and it carries that same can-do, community-first energy. Veterans' displays line the walls. Slot machines hum in the corner. Special meal nights fill the calendar. There's always something happening, and the crowd that shows up is the kind that stays until closing.

Founded as part of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Lodge #2650 is a members-only club with real roots in charitable work, veteran support, and local giving. The fun inside funds the good work outside. That's the deal, and members here take both halves seriously.

What We Offer

The lodge runs a full members' bar staffed by the bar ladies reviewers keep coming back to praise. Cold drinks, familiar faces, and a room where the conversation never really stops.

Special dinner nights rotate through the calendar with home-style cooking that draws a crowd. Beyond the dining room, members enjoy slot machines, games, and social events that range from holiday gatherings to community fundraisers. Veterans' programming and displays honor the service members among the membership.

New members gain access to everything the lodge offers, plus the broader BPOE network of lodges nationwide, charitable grant programs, and scholarship opportunities. Membership applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. Stop by during open hours to learn how to join.

"Lodge full of clicky people. Never really met anyone after going there for a few years. Got there at 7:50 one Christmas Eve and had gone to the bathroom first, when I was in there they had given "last call" and refused to give me a drink. I changed my membership to Cocoa Elks I love that lodge.."

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
