About Us

At 208 N Boone St, the Johnson City Elks Lodge 825 runs on something that's harder to find than ever: people who are genuinely glad you walked through the door. Reviewers keep landing on the same word, welcoming, and that's not an accident. It's the result of members who show up week after week, learn your name, and make room at the bar.

The calendar here rarely sits still. On any given weekend you might catch a live band filling the hall with sound, a crowd packed around the TVs for a big game, or a quiet Tuesday night that turns into a two-hour conversation with someone you just met. That range is exactly the point. Lodge 825 isn't built around one kind of night out.

Beyond the social side, the Elks are one of the most active charitable organizations in Johnson City, Tennessee. Every dollar that stays in the community, every scholarship awarded, every veteran supported, runs through members who vote on it, fund it, and deliver it themselves. The 4.8-star rating from 41 reviews reflects both sides of that equation: a great place to spend an evening, and an organization worth belonging to.

What We Offer

Lodge 825 offers a full-service bar and lounge where members and their guests can unwind any night of the week. Live entertainment rotates through regularly, from local country and rock acts to acoustic sets that keep the room humming without drowning out conversation.

Sports nights draw crowds around multiple TVs for everything from college football to championship boxing. The lodge also hosts private events including member banquets, celebrations, and community fundraisers in a spacious hall that handles large gatherings comfortably.

Membership in the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks unlocks reciprocal privileges at over 1,700 lodges nationwide, access to scholarship programs, veteran outreach initiatives, and a genuine vote in how Lodge 825 gives back to the Tri-Cities region. Membership applications are welcome and new faces are always encouraged to stop in and see what a visit feels like before committing.

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
