“WELKome” to the Ballard Elks!   

Welcome to Ballard Elks Lodge 827 — a social and charitable group that strives to make a difference in our community and beyond. We bring people together in all kinds of ways, from our weekly summer paddle club to bingo games, trivia, cribbage and car shows. It’s all in the name of fun and fundraising, benefiting veteran’s groups, youth programs, the Ballard Food Bank, and more. Come down and visit us on the shores of Shilshole Bay.

Join Us Daily in the Social Quarters!

Our lodge offers two inviting spaces for members to relax and connect. Beginning May 1, our primary gathering spot is the downstairs Club Room, which includes a covered outdoor patio and a beautiful waterfront terrace. This area features both 21+ and family‑friendly sections, with the patio open to all ages. (Please remember guests under 21 must remain with a parent or guardian at all times while at the lodge.)

When the Club Room is reserved for a private event, we shift upstairs to the Sky Lounge and outdoor deck—both 21+ spaces. During those times, our Lodge Hall becomes the designated area for members and guests under 21.

On especially busy evenings, both levels of our Social Quarters may be open. No matter where we gather, you’ll always find warm hospitality, the Elks spirit of caring and sharing, and a great view waiting for you.
