Brought home the nicest 6 1/2 ounce burgers we've ever had and two bags of the freshest kaiser rolls and brat buns. The buns were so good, so light and fluffy and delicious we ate half the bag plain with just a little butter. Delicious! All of their meat products are made in-house. Sausages, cuts of beef and pork, meat sticks (best meat sticks I've ever had). Fresh, lean meat with a smooth texture. Deli sides are beyond reproach, fresh and decidedly delicious. Just wonderful. This place is so good, I suggested to my wife that we should keep it a secret, but no....the truth be told is the world must know. This place is really worth the drive.

Reams is like a grocery store for just meat. After hearing about Reams for most of my life, I…read morefinally decided to check out this location as I was in the area The location is very easy to find. Parking was plentiful, and I entered the building not knowing what to expect. When you enter, you can see this is a just a different but amazing place. They have freezers with meat, deli cases with meat, fridge with meat, and more deli cases with meat. There are other non-meat like cheese, desserts, and bread. For my visit, I bought some Braunschwager aka: liver sausage. The flavor was very good.. but yet a little strong for my taste bud. However, I would still rate it top 10 that I have ever tried. Jerky dip was delicious. It was very easily spreadable and a little sweet. Wagyu Tallow was in the end of the fridge aisle. I will have to test this out when I smoke some brisket or something. Overall, the prices were very reasonable especially given today's-inflation prices. I am a huge fan and will return in the future to try more stuff. Especially the jerky!

I think we pick up more drinks because we spotted more items we could possible use :) --Service/Staff-- Friendly service. I don't remember their names, but they even had recommendations on some of their cigars. --Products/Service-- Got more drinks for the BBQ then we deserve or need. --Capacity-- Indoors can hold 60 plus people with the amount of space and walking aisles. The drinks were either stacked on shelves or in the refrigerated section, but there were plenty to choose from and spacious area. --Overall-- If you are Dixon, this is a great spot to stock up on drinks for parties or large gatherings.

Chris refused to sell to me because he is racist (according to his own words)…read more If I could give 0 stars, I would. I stopped in for a half pint of Hennessy and was refused service because the person I was with did not have their ID (but I did). I explained to the clerk that I was the one purchasing the alcohol and he continued to refuse, claiming that because the person I was with did not have his ID, he would not sell to me. I noticed another clerk behind the desk and she was extremely kind and helpful, but Chris, the person who was refusing service, kept talking over her and saying the law says we both need an ID (it doesn't). I told him that it was unfair and discriminatory to refuse to sell to someone who has a valid ID & he said "you know what? yeah, it's because i'm racist" and laughed as if he was being sarcastic. However, his comment was extremely hurtful and damaging. I asked Chris to speak to someone in charge and he told me he was the boss at Liquor N Wine. After leaving, I called the store and asked to speak to a manager, to which whoever answered the phone replied that the person in charge would not be in until Monday (this incident happened on Saturday, 2/28/26). I felt very hurt and attacked by his derogatory comments. After his comment, I left the store in disbelief and nearly in tears. I ask that whoever is in charge addresses this issue immediately and properly handles Chris' feelings and attitudes towards Hispanic people. I would hate to have to report this incident to the Attorney General's office because I truly like the store and the rest of the workers. Chris should not be allowed to continue to discriminate and ruin the reputation of Liquor N Wine.
