About Us

Walk into Elks Lodge #1420 on South Plaza Street and you'll immediately notice what keeps members and guests coming back: real people, cold drinks at fair prices, and a lounge that actually feels like a living room. The bar stocks a solid lineup of beers and wine, and the crowd is the kind that makes a stranger feel like a regular by the second round.

This lodge has earned its 4.2-star reputation the honest way, one event at a time. The comedy nights that members rave about pack the hall with laughter, and the family-friendly atmosphere means you can bring your daughter and son-in-law without a second thought. Brawley's Imperial Valley doesn't have a surplus of gathering spots with this kind of character, which is exactly why #1420 matters.

Beyond the social calendar, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks carries a serious commitment to community service, youth programs, and veterans support. Membership here is a handshake with something larger than a bar tab. It's a seat at a table that's been holding this town together for generations.

What We Offer

The lounge at Lodge #1420 is the anchor, offering a relaxed bar setting with beers, wine, and the kind of pricing that doesn't punish you for staying a while. Events rotate through the calendar regularly, from comedy showcases to member dinners and holiday gatherings that fill the hall.

Membership opens access to all lodge events, voting rights in lodge decisions, and eligibility for Elks-sponsored scholarships and community grants. The lodge also supports veterans programs, youth activities, and local charitable initiatives throughout the Brawley area.

Non-members are often welcomed as guests of current members, so if you've been curious, the easiest move is to show up with someone who's already in. Ask about the membership application process at the bar or visit elks.org to start the conversation.

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
