With zero experience, a tiny budget, and a strong work ethic, I opened The Mission in October 2015. My vision was simple - to create a place like no other in the community, where people could socialize, enjoy DELICIOUS food and cocktails, and, as Billy Joel once said...forget about life for a while. Ten years later, that VISION REMAINS TRUE TO THIS DAY.
Over the years, we've changed a lot - from our menu and atmosphere to the walls that hold our memories - but our heart has always stayed the same. What began as The Mission has now evolved into Lucky Dog. The new name reflects the spirit that's been with us from day one: gratitude, creativity, and the joy of doing what we love. After nearly a decade of building this dream, I can honestly say I'm one lucky dog to have shared it with this amazing community.
While the name has changed, the soul of this place hasn't. Lucky Dog is still your neighborhood spot to unwind, connect, and feel inspired - a little corner of happiness tucked between Gibsonville and Elon. Whether you've been with us since the beginning or you're just discovering us, see what's new and experience it all again, for the very first time. We're very grateful to all of our customers who have supported us over the years. Here's to good food, good vibes, and the next chapter of our story! live your best life!
