About Us

A decorated table for a Cub Scout celebration with themed items. — Elks Lodge
A decorated table for a Cub Scout celebration with themed items.

Every Thursday and Friday evening, something genuine happens at 191 Main Street. The Queen of Hearts board fills with anticipation, tickets move for a dollar a piece, and the crowd that shows up isn't chasing a gimmick, they're regulars who know the drill and love it. The drawing at 8 p.m. sharp on Thursdays has become one of those small-town rituals that Oneida actually looks forward to.

Friday nights belong to the fish fry, and locals will tell you it's not just huge, it's the kind of spread that makes you plan your week around it. Leslie and the rest of the floor staff treat every table like it's a favor to them, not the other way around. Eat in, take out, full menu on the side, the Lodge keeps it flexible because the members know what people want.

Beyond the weekly events, the Oneida Elks host seasonal celebrations that draw the whole community. The Strawberry Fest drew rave reviews, and it's just one example of how this Lodge punches well above its weight for a city this size. With a 4.5-star rating across twenty reviews, the proof is in the people who keep coming back.

What We Offer

The Lodge runs a full-service dining room every Friday night anchored by the legendary fish fry, eat-in or take-out, your call. A complete menu runs alongside it, so non-fish fans are never left out. The kitchen crew keeps quality consistent week after week, which is why the parking lot fills early.

Queen of Hearts tickets go on sale every Thursday and Friday from 5 to 9 p.m., with the weekly drawing at 8 p.m. Thursday. At a dollar a ticket, it's the best low-stakes excitement in Madison County. Private event space is also available for members and community groups looking for a venue with character and a full bar.

Seasonal events like the Strawberry Fest and other Lodge-sponsored gatherings round out a calendar that gives Oneida residents a genuine reason to gather on Main Street throughout the year.

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
