On North Park Street, the Streator Elks Lodge #591 has been the kind of place locals keep coming back to, not because they have to, but because the food is genuinely good and the company is even better. The fried chicken on Fridays has earned its reputation the old-fashioned way: through word of mouth and empty plates. Saturday nights bring a steady crowd of regulars who know that a decent meal at a fair price is harder to find than it should be.

The lodge runs a bowling alley that hosts everything from birthday parties to casual league nights, giving families and friends a reason to show up together. The kitchen is open Wednesday through Saturday, which means four nights a week this address on Park Street is one of the livelier spots in Streator. Rated 4.6 out of 5 by members and guests, the atmosphere is relaxed, the staff know their regulars by name, and the bar pours without pretense.

Elks Lodge #591 is a chartered chapter of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, a fraternal organization committed to serving veterans, supporting youth programs, and strengthening the local community. Membership opens the door to those programs, but the dining room and events welcome the broader Streator community as well.

What We Offer

The lodge delivers a full-service experience under one roof. The dining room serves hearty, home-style meals Wednesday through Saturday, with the Friday fried chicken drawing repeat visitors week after week. Prices stay reasonable because this place was never built to turn a profit off its neighbors.

The bar and lounge offers a comfortable spot to unwind after work or catch up with friends over a drink. The bowling alley handles private events like birthday parties, league play, and casual open bowling, making it one of the more versatile entertainment venues in Livingston County.

Beyond the food and recreation, Elks #591 supports community initiatives including veterans' assistance, scholarship programs for local youth, and charitable giving throughout the Streator area. Members gain access to lodge events, discounted dining, and the broader national Elks network.

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
