"5 Stars I recently hosted my mother’s 70th birthday celebration at the Elks Lodge in Bowie, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I walked in, Angela and her team made me feel welcomed, supported, and fully taken care of. Angela went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was just right—from the setup to helping coordinate logistics. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made all the difference. She truly made the planning process stress-free and the event itself seamless. The space was beautiful, clean, and spacious—perfect for hosting a milestone event. Our guests had a wonderful time, and I received so many compliments on the venue. I will absolutely be recommending the Elks Lodge in Bowie to anyone looking for a place to host their next special occasion. Thank you again to Angela and the team for helping us create such a special and memorable night!"

"Before the actual banquet night of celebrating 35 years out of high-school, we came to have a drink. Drinks were very reasonable and the banquet hall is very nice foe any occasion. Had a ball spending time with old classmates. You have to be a member to enter the premises."

"I go there on Sundays as they have a very nice dance every week which is open to the public. The outside could use some sprucing up. The club hall where the dance is held is VERY dated and need of a renovation. The dance floor needs to be much bigger as it get crowed very quickly. It is dark and dingy on the the ceiling tiles are water stained. The bar area is old and not inviting. If dancing is your thing good place to go just don't look too hard at the building."
