Arthur’s Garden Deli has been a Sauk Valley favorite since 1977, serving fresh, made-to-order deli sandwiches, loaded baked potatoes, salads, soups, and desserts in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. Founded by Scott Arthur Wolber, the deli started in a small 16′ x 24′ shop in Sterling, Illinois, and has grown into a beloved regional staple — now including the Dixon location, where the same faith- and family-first philosophy continues to guide every detail.

At Arthur’s, everything begins with freshness and simplicity. Meats and produce are sliced daily, and signature sides like potato salad, macaroni salad, quiche, and fresh-cut fruit bowls are all made in-house each morning. The result is food that’s as authentic as the people behind it.

Voted the Sauk Valley’s “Favorite Place for Lunch” for over 21 consecutive years, Arthur’s Garden Deli has earned its reputation as a place where friends meet, families gather, and every meal feels like home.

Beyond the kitchen, Arthur’s is deeply rooted in community — supporting local charities, hiring local talent, and staying actively involved in the region’s growth. Their values are simple: great food, great people, and great purpose.
