Pull up a chair at Staunton Elks Lodge 351 on Tams Street and you'll understand immediately why members keep coming back. The dining room buzzes with the kind of easy conversation that only happens when people genuinely know each other's names. Rated 4.9 out of 5 by members and guests, this lodge has earned its reputation not through marketing, but through consistent warmth and a kitchen that actually delivers.

The BPOE tradition running through Lodge 351 is more than ceremonial. It shows up in the way a stranger at the bar becomes a familiar face by the end of lunch, and in the community programs that quietly fund scholarships, veterans' support, and youth initiatives across the Staunton, Virginia area. This is a lodge that works, not just one that meets.

Located at 29 Tams Street, the lodge sits in a city that takes its local institutions seriously. Staunton is a place where history and community still mean something, and Lodge 351 fits that character exactly.

What We Offer

The lodge offers a full dining room serving lunch and dinner with rotating specials that members genuinely look forward to. The kitchen puts out hearty, well-priced plates, and the bar keeps things social without ever getting rowdy. It is the kind of place where you can linger over a meal without feeling rushed.

Beyond the table, Lodge 351 hosts regular social events, charitable fundraisers, and member meetings that give the community real reasons to gather. Private event space is available for members hosting gatherings, and the lodge actively supports veterans' programs, youth scholarships, and local causes through the Elks National Foundation.

Membership opens the door to all of it: discounted dining, access to Elks lodges nationwide, and the straightforward satisfaction of belonging to an organization that puts its money where its mission is.

The Order · Since 1868

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
