About Us

Outdoor swimming pool area at San Luis Obispo Elks Lodge #322.
Outdoor swimming pool area at San Luis Obispo Elks Lodge #322.

On a quiet stretch of Elks Lane, Lodge #322 has been the kind of place families return to summer after summer, not because they have to, but because it genuinely feels like home. The pool fills up with kids while parents catch up at the bar. A Friday dinner turns into a two-hour conversation with neighbors you didn't expect to see. That's the rhythm here, and it has been for generations of San Luis Obispo families.

The lodge carries a 4.6-star rating across more than 200 reviews, which is not an accident. Members consistently point to the quality of the food, the cleanliness of the facilities, and a staff that actually seems glad to be there. The bar and restaurant runs efficiently, the catering holds up for large events, and the pool area stays well-maintained through the season.

This is Lodge #322, a chapter of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and the community service mission that defines the national organization runs deep here. Scholarship programs, veteran support, and local charity work are woven into the calendar alongside social events. Membership is not just a club card. It is a commitment to a place that gives back.

What We Offer

Membership at Lodge #322 opens the door to a full calendar of dining, recreation, and civic involvement. The restaurant and bar serves lunches and dinners that members describe as consistently good, with catering available for private events held on the property. The facilities are clean, well-staffed, and set up to handle everything from casual weeknight meals to formal banquets.

The swimming pool is a centerpiece of the summer experience, popular with families who have made it a seasonal tradition. Beyond recreation, the lodge hosts regular events throughout the year, from holiday gatherings to fundraisers that benefit local causes. Scholarship opportunities for young members of the community and programs supporting veterans reflect the Elks' broader mission.

For those considering membership, the value is straightforward: quality amenities, a full event schedule, and a community of neighbors who show up for each other. Prospective members are encouraged to attend a public event first to get a feel for the lodge before applying.

"The Elks Lodge in San Luis Obispo is one of those places that just feels like community. Our family has been members for years and it never gets old. We spend summers at the pool with the kids, we're regulars at the grill nights, and I've hosted more than a few poker games in the game room — always a great time. There's something going on nearly every week and the people who show up are genuinely good folks. It's the kind of place where everybody knows your name and newcomers are welcomed with open arms. Oh, and the bar prices? Refreshingly reasonable. If you're on the Central Coast and not yet a member of the SLO Elks Lodge, it's worth a serious look. A true community staple that doesn't get nearly enough credit."

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
