Nestled in the heart of Sidney, Ohio, Sidney Elks Lodge 786 has been the beating heart of our community since our founding as Lodge #786. We're more than just a meeting hall—we're a family forged in brotherhood, patriotism, and good old-fashioned fun.

With a 4.4-star rating from 19 glowing reviews, folks rave about our 'very friendly atmosphere and fantastic food.'
