I would highly recommend the Croatian Lodge for any event.

We had our daughters wedding reception at Croatian hall. Everything was perfect. The hall looked beautiful and spotlessly clean, the food was absolutely delicious. Tina was amazing to work with, especially while trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic. She was so accommodating and made the planning so much easier for my daughter who had to reschedule her wedding three times. Tina made sure every detail we asked for was taken care of. She and all of the staff were super friendly. We did family style and servers refilled food, coffee, etc to guests at the tables. We received so many compliments from our guests on the food, the venue, and just how nice everything was to make the night fun for all, and successful for us, I would highly recommend the Croatian Lodge for any event.

The Christ Child Society of the Western Reserve Red Wagon Luncheon Fundraiser was a huge success here on April 25, 2018. Over 670 guests enjoyed the luncheon and our guest speaker, author and Cleveland 19 News Anchor Romona Robinson. The management of the American Croatian Lodge was a pleasure to work with and accommodated all our requests. It's a beautiful venue for a large event!

We had our wedding reception in the west end hall this past weekend and everything was fantastic. Everything (venue, food, linen, tables, chairs, ect.) was included in the price. The food was AMAZING!! They even boxed up the leftovers for us to take home at the end of the night. We chose the basic open bar option. They allowed us to bring in our own alcohol if we wanted something specific that was not included in the basic bar. Our bartender was the greatest! The staff was very friendly and professional! Our whole experience working with the American-Croatian Lodge was fantastic! We will definately recommend this place to our friends and family!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
