If you visited MoonRunners in December, you may have been one of the lucky customers to walk out with something mysterious: a sealed red envelope. No peeking. No opening at home. Just one rule—bring it back and open it inside the restaurant.
Select guests were handed sealed red envelopes with one instruction: bring it back and open it inside MoonRunners, in front of your server, in January. No previews—carrying a little excitement from one year into the next.
Turning January Into Something Worth Celebrating
The start of a new year often feels quieter than expected. The holidays pass, routines return, and January settles into a slower rhythm. At MoonRunners Saloon, we wanted to do something that gave guests a reason to look forward to the new year.
January doesn’t usually come with surprises. That’s exactly why we created one. Each red envelope holds a prize, and every new year should start off with a little surprise.
Opening the envelope is part of the experience. Whether it’s a small win or a bigger reward, the excitement is real, and the celebration is immediate.
Open It Here, Win It Here
What’s in the envelopes? That’s part of the fun. Surprises, rewards, and a little extra MoonRunners magic—because we like to keep things interesting, even after the holidays are over.
If you received a red envelope in December, now is the time to bring it back. If you didn’t, remember that MoonRunners is always finding ways to reward the people who walk through our doors.

MoonRunners Saloon offers a unique prohibition-era themed experience, featuring a lively atmosphere, the world’s largest selection of moonshine, and award-winning food such as wings and ribs. With two locations in Garner and one in Dunn, it’s a top choice for both locals and visitors seeking memorable American dining.
