About Us

On Front Street in Accomac, Virginia, Lodge 1766 has been doing something most organizations only talk about: actually showing up for its community. The reviews say it plainly. Members call this their home. They brag about the kitchen. They come back week after week, not out of habit, but because the people here make it worth the drive.

The food alone has earned a loyal following on the Eastern Shore. Miss Gloria Jean and her kitchen crew turn out meals that members put up against any restaurant in the region, and they mean it. Tami Fowler and the rest of the staff run a tight, warm operation where you feel like a regular from the first visit. The lodge recently went smoke-free, a change members have welcomed alongside the packed bingo nights and the steady rhythm of Elks events.

Lodge 1766 carries the values the BPOE has stood for since 1868: charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity. Here on Virginia's Eastern Shore, those aren't words on a plaque. They show up in the handshakes, the shared plates, and the way members genuinely look out for one another.

What We Offer

Bingo nights draw a crowd to Lodge 1766, and first-timers quickly learn the pace is brisk. Games move fast, the energy is high, and the advice from veterans is simple: start with one packet until you find your rhythm. It's a genuine good time in a room full of people who know how to have one.

Beyond bingo, the lodge hosts a full calendar of Elks-sponsored events, charitable fundraisers, and member gatherings. The kitchen serves up home-style meals that have become a point of local pride, from weeknight dinners to special occasion spreads. The dining room gives members a real reason to gather around a table rather than just a cause.

Membership in Lodge 1766 opens the door to the broader Elks network, including the national organization's scholarship programs, veteran support initiatives, and community grant funding. Whether you're a lifelong Elk or considering joining for the first time, the lodge on Front Street is the kind of place that earns its 4.4-star reputation one visit at a time.

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
