The Ferndale Elks Lodge #1588 is a fun place to go hang out with a nice friendly atmosphere. It is not a fancy place but offers a great diversity of members and clientele, creating a vibrant lesson in American pop culture and trends with so many people from different walks of life and lifestyles. The staff and bartenders are great, always offering a seat and a smile. The lodge provides plenty of activities throughout the week, including music bingo, and features amenities like four dart machines. Drinks are dirt cheap, including a huge beer mug, and the food is good. The popcorn is typically ready and the bathroom is always clean and well stocked. It is a great place for people watching and sends out a happy harmony vibe where everyone gets along. With good seating even when crowded, it is a very fun experience and those are the type of places people like to go. There are also tons of volunteer opportunities for those interested in joining the club.
My son brought me as a guest! Really nice place with a diverse crowd. Everyone was very friendly!

You need be a member or join a member to go here. I'm not a member, but I frequently join my friends who are members. Cheap drinks, typical bar food (also cheap), darts (free), AMI Play jukebox, good people/vibes. Obviously LGBTQIA+ friendly being in Ferndale. Great place to take dates and feel safe.
