About The Lucky Pony — San Diego Mobile Bar by Jon & Lindsay

WELL HELLO THERE

Built by two San Diego natives who know exactly what makes an event unforgettable.

The idea for The Lucky Pony came to life when Jon’s extensive background in bartending met Lindsay’s two decades of user experience strategy. Together, they crafted a mobile bartending service designed to delight any event with a sophisticated and personalized touch. After searching for the perfect converted bar trailer, they found one they had long admired. In a stroke of luck, the owner decided to sell, and The Lucky Pony was born.

Let us enhance your event's aesthetic with our garden to glass beverages served from a beautifully designed, picture-perfect trailer and satellite bar, including our team of accredited and skilled bartenders. We’d be lucky to share your special moments with you.
