At Elks Lodge 256 on Parrish Road, you'll find exactly what the reviews keep saying: low-key atmosphere, very nice people, and drink prices that don't make you wince. That combination is rarer than it sounds, and it's why members and guests keep coming back to this corner of Conneaut, Ohio.

The lodge has been part of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks since its charter, carrying forward a tradition of community service and camaraderie that runs deeper than any single evening at the bar. Pull up a stool, catch a Great Lakes beer on tap, and you'll quickly understand why this place earns a 4.6-star rating from people who don't hand out compliments lightly.

Beyond the bar, Lodge 256 channels its membership dues and volunteer hours into local causes, veteran support, and youth programs that make a real difference in the Ashtabula County area. The friendliness you feel walking through the door isn't a marketing strategy. It's just how Elks operate.

What We Offer

Lodge 256 offers a full-service bar stocked with spirits, domestic and craft options, and rotating tap handles that have included Great Lakes Brewing favorites. Drink prices are consistently called out in reviews as one of the best deals in town, which makes it easy to settle in for the evening without watching the clock.

The lodge hosts regular member events, dinners, and social nights throughout the year, giving the community a reliable place to gather for everything from casual Friday nights to organized fundraisers. Private event rental is available for members looking to celebrate milestones in a space that already feels like home.

Membership in the BPOE opens doors to reciprocal privileges at Elks lodges across the country, plus direct involvement in scholarship programs, veteran outreach, and community grants that put local dollars to work right here in Conneaut.

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
