What Sets the Take Home Bag Apart

Tamper-evident adhesive seal: The defining feature. The adhesive creates a permanent seal that visibly tears when opened — satisfying the legal requirement that the bottle be in a sealed container during transport. This is not a zip-lock or reusable closure. It's a one-time seal designed for legal compliance. Once closed, the only way to access the bottle is to destroy the bag.

Open container law compliance: Most states allow restaurant patrons to take home an unfinished bottle of wine if the bottle is re-corked and placed in a sealed, tamper-evident bag. This bag was designed specifically for that purpose. Without it, restaurants either discard unfinished wine (losing the guest's goodwill) or risk a compliance issue by sending bottles home without proper packaging.

Clear plastic — the bottle label stays visible: Unlike opaque bags that hide the bottle, the clear plastic keeps the wine label fully visible. This matters because diners choose wine by label — seeing their selection through the bag reinforces their purchase decision and maintains the presentation quality of the bottle during transport.

Printable for restaurant branding: Screen or pad printing your restaurant name and logo on clear plastic creates a distinctive look — your branding floats over the visible wine bottle inside. Every bottle that leaves your restaurant in a branded bag advertises your wine program to everyone who sees it in the guest's hand, car, and home.

Encourages bottle orders over glass orders: Guests who know they can take unfinished wine home are more likely to order by the bottle rather than by the glass. A visible take-home bag program at the table or on the menu signals that your restaurant supports this — removing the hesitation that causes guests to default to glass pours when they'd prefer a full bottle.

Ideal For

Restaurants with wine programs — the primary use case. Any restaurant that sells wine by the bottle should stock take-home bags. They protect the guest's purchase, comply with the law, and brand the restaurant on every bottle that leaves the building. The program pays for itself through increased bottle orders
Fine dining and upscale restaurants — guests at higher-end restaurants order premium bottles and are especially reluctant to leave unfinished wine behind. A branded take-home bag signals attentive service and removes any awkwardness around the request
Wine bars and tasting rooms — guests purchasing open bottles to take home after a tasting need sealed packaging for transport. The take-home bag handles this cleanly. Browse our full custom wine bags wholesale collection for reusable tasting room bags
Hotel restaurants and resort dining — guests dining at the hotel restaurant take unfinished bottles back to their room or home. The branded bag extends the hotel's dining brand beyond the restaurant
Catering and private events — open bottles remaining after a private event or catered dinner can be sent home with guests in branded take-home bags rather than being discarded
Wine-by-the-bottle promotions — restaurants running bottle specials or wine pairing dinners can promote the take-home bag as part of the offer, encouraging guests to commit to a full bottle
