Friday nights at Platteville Elks Lodge #1460 have a rhythm that regulars know well: the smell of fresh-fried fish drifting through the door on South Oak Street, a seat that's easy to find, and a tab that won't make you wince. The Friday night fish fry has earned a genuine reputation around Grant County, drawing members and guests who keep coming back not because there's nowhere else to go, but because this place simply does it right.

The Lodge sits at 55 S Oak St and carries the full weight of what the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks stands for: community, charity, and taking care of the people around you. Members here support local veterans, fund youth programs, and show up when Platteville needs them. The dining room isn't pretentious. Come as you are, grab a plate, and feel at home.

With a 4.5-star rating built on real, repeat customers, the Lodge has earned its place as one of the most reliable spots in town for a honest meal and good company. Cash is king here, so plan ahead and bring your wallet the old-fashioned way.

What We Offer

The centerpiece of the Lodge calendar is the Friday fish fry, served at a price point that makes it one of the best deals in Platteville. Expect generous portions, a warm dining room, and the kind of unhurried service that lets you actually enjoy your meal and the people you came with.

Beyond Friday nights, Lodge #1460 hosts member events, community gatherings, and charitable functions throughout the year. The bar is stocked and the atmosphere is relaxed, making it a natural spot for post-game drinks, a casual weeknight dinner, or a private event with a group that wants a real local setting rather than a chain banquet room.

Membership in the Elks opens the door to everything the Lodge offers year-round, including access to a national network of over 800,000 members, local scholarship programs, and veteran support initiatives that make a measurable difference right here in Platteville, WI.

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
