About Us

On W Church St in downtown Bergenfield, Lodge 1477 of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has been doing the kind of work that rarely makes headlines but shapes a community for generations. Members show up for scholarship fundraisers, veterans' programs, youth initiatives, and national Elks causes, all while keeping a well-maintained hall that locals keep coming back to.

Step inside and you'll find a long bar lined with familiar faces, tables that fill up fast on event nights, and a vestibule that gives the whole space a more polished feel than most fraternal halls in the area. The outdoor party space draws particular praise from guests, and the room comfortably seats 120 people, with room to breathe on the dance floor if you plan accordingly.

A 4.6-star rating across 50 reviews tells you something real: people leave here glad they came. Whether it's a tricky tray fundraiser, a private party, or a lodge meeting, the staff is known for being friendly, responsive, and genuinely helpful from setup to last call.

What We Offer

"Very nice outdoor party space. Staff was friendly and helpful with bar and cleaning up. Inside area was very nice too, with long bar and tables. (Don't know what other spaces are available for rent, but for outdoor and downstairs bar was very nice and clean, including ladies room!"

"Members only club that does great community work plus other national good deeds. The space they rent handles 120 people but less if you want more dance space. If you do rent, need to get drinks from Lodge. Or can buy from downstairs bar."

"PROS: I went here for a tricky tray once. The hall is quite large compared to other Elks lodges and it even has a vestibule area. The place is maintenance properly and is located close to the center of town CONS: The parking lot is very small and cramped. its hard to find a spot and it's also hard to navigate out of the parking lot. OVERALL: If you're thinking about renting the hall out that would be great, but if the event has over 30 families coming you might run into a problem with the parking"

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
