About Us

A person in a blue sequined dress poses at an event.

Pull into 355 Pilgreen Drive on any given Friday night and you'll hear it before you see it: laughter, the crack of billiard balls, and the kind of easy conversation that only happens when people actually know each other. Elks Lodge #2703 has been that gathering place for Calera and the surrounding Shelby County community, earning a 4.5-star reputation built on real nights spent with real neighbors.

The lodge isn't just a bar with a parking lot. It's the room where families have thrown birthday parties, where road-trippers have plugged into one of five 50/30-amp RV hookups and slept soundly despite the distant hum of the nearby train yard, and where bartenders remember your name after the second visit. Members and guests consistently call out the atmosphere first, and that's no accident.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has stood for charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity since 1868, and Lodge #2703 carries that mission into every event it hosts and every dollar it raises for local youth and veterans programs right here in Calera, Alabama.

What We Offer

The lodge offers a full-service bar staffed by friendly, attentive bartenders who keep the atmosphere relaxed and the drinks moving. Private event space is available for birthday parties, family gatherings, and milestone celebrations, with room to make the evening your own.

RV overnight parking is one of the most talked-about amenities, giving traveling Elks members a safe, affordable stop with 5 spots offering both 50-amp and 30-amp service. It's the kind of perk that turns a long road trip into a genuine highlight.

Beyond the social side, Lodge #2703 channels member dues and fundraising into community programs targeting youth scholarships, veterans support, and local charitable giving. When you join or attend an event here, you're putting money back into Shelby County in a way that actually shows up.

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
