About Us

The entrance of the Plano Elks Lodge with a clear sign.
The entrance of the Plano Elks Lodge with a clear sign.

The Plano Elks Lodge 2485 operates out of a no-fuss suite on Jupiter Road in Plano, and that understated address tells you something real about the people inside: they're not here to impress anyone with a fancy building. They're here to do the work. Members of the B.P.O.E. (Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks) have been showing up for veterans, kids, and neighbors in need long before it became trendy to call yourself community-minded.

The lodge is a genuine gathering place. Locals have hosted baby showers and family celebrations here, praising the spacious layout, the well-kept tables and chairs, and the kind of hospitality that makes guests feel like regulars. The bathrooms are roomy enough for families with little ones, and the staff goes out of their way to make every event run smoothly. And yes, there's now a full bar with real bartenders, because, as the members themselves say, the Best People On Earth get thirsty doing amazing things for those in need.

With a 4.4-star rating and a reputation for welcoming volunteers and community partners, Lodge 2485 is the kind of place Plano residents discover once and keep coming back to.

What We Offer

The lodge at 1111 Jupiter Rd is available for private event rentals, making it a smart choice for baby showers, birthday parties, retirement celebrations, and community fundraisers. The space comes equipped with tables, chairs, and room to move, handled by an attentive on-site team that reviewers consistently describe as hospitable and easy to work with.

Beyond private events, Lodge 2485 runs ongoing charitable programs tied to the national Elks mission: supporting veterans, funding youth scholarships, and partnering on local community projects. Members gather regularly for lodge meetings, social nights, and volunteer coordination. The full-service bar with licensed bartenders rounds out the social side, giving members a comfortable spot to connect after a hard day of doing good.

If you're interested in becoming a member, the Elks welcome American citizens who believe in God and want to make a tangible difference in their community. Visit bpoe2485.org for membership information, event inquiries, and the latest news from the 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
