Elks Lodge Des Plaines

Was a guest on a very slow evening. It took 30 minutes to get someone to take our food order and only after we complained about it. NEVER saw our waitress again after getting drinks. Order taken by another staff member and served by yet another staff member. Will not return due to horrendous service.

Came here for the first time to play Wednesday night BINGO! In the lower level of the facility, every Wednesday they host Bingo. They have an Early-​Bird called at 6:45 pm and then Regular Bingo at 7 pm. They play regular Bingo, Bonanza, Pull-​Tabs, Split-​the-​Pot and plus more! You get to a total of 15 Games of Bingo. The parking lot fills up quickly so get there early!
Be ready for whistle blows and call outs! I learned a few Bingo terms. For example, when the number 22 is called everyone that has a whistle blows it! Too (t)…Too (t) … like a train.
This was a great random/​spur of the moment fun! Don’t forget to bring your Daubers! If you’re like me and this is your first time playing Bingo you can purchase one for a $ 1 there! They also have affordable refreshments and snacks that your able to purchase. Or bring your own!

Attended a wedding reception here and I must say the staff was excellent! Very warm, professional and gracious! The bartender who was an older lady made some of the best drinks I’ve ever had in an open bar!

Great dinner for members and quests with a warm and friendly staff. Not open to the public.
