About Us

The Salinas Elks Lodge #614 has been part of this agricultural valley longer than most buildings still standing on Airport Boulevard. Members come back year after year because the staff genuinely knows your name, the bar is stocked and welcoming, and the kitchen turns out sandwiches worth driving across town for. That turkey jalapeño sandwich alone has earned a loyal following among regulars who know a good thing when they taste it.

The lodge hosts family events that draw the broader Salinas community in, from Trunk or Treat nights that pack the parking lot with kids in costume to member dinners that feel less like a formal function and more like a neighborhood gathering. Guests consistently note that the staff is accommodating without being stiff, which is exactly the atmosphere a fraternal lodge should carry.

With a 4.5-star rating from over 119 reviewers, Lodge #614 holds its own among Elks lodges up and down California. The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has championed veterans, youth programs, and local charities for well over a century, and this Salinas chapter carries that mission forward every week.

What We Offer

Lodge #614 offers members and their guests a full-service bar and lounge where the drinks are honest and the conversation is easy. The kitchen serves crowd favorites anchored by that now-legendary turkey jalapeño sandwich, alongside rotating specials that keep regulars coming back to see what's new.

Beyond the bar, the lodge provides event space for private gatherings, member meetings, and community functions. Traveling Elks members can check in with the lodge for reciprocal hospitality, a perk of belonging to a national organization with chapters in every state. Youth programs, scholarship fundraisers, and veterans outreach round out the calendar, giving members meaningful ways to give back to the Salinas Valley throughout the year.

Membership opens the door to all of it, including discounted event tickets, access to the lounge, voting rights on lodge decisions, and the national network of BPOE lodges that makes travel a little warmer no matter where you land.

"Used to come regularly when a family member was a member of the lodge. But today went for the trunk or treat and my little one said they enjoyed it. There wasn't many cars but it's ok. The fact that they enjoyed it is all that matters. They ran out of pumpkins as we got inside to paint one and little one didn't want a face painting."

"I’m not comfortable writing this review because the Elks organization is such a wonderful membership club. Every Elks club we’ve stayed out has been clean and feels safe. That is not the case at this club. Rv camping area is rundown. They allow campers to leave junk outside their RVs. At $45 per night, it is not a good place to stay."

"Visited for dancing and a great ambiance. Separate bar area, dining room and dance floor make for great venue for events. Offers comfort foods at good prices when attending public event. Parking lot has decent lighting, but can be crowded if RV area is full and RVs are in car parking area. Easy to locate and access to freeway is convenient."

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
