Hi! I'm Lindsay, and I write the Siouxland Families Blog to connect you to fun in Sioux City, Siouxland, and beyond. I do the research so you can skip to the good part of making memories with your loved ones. I believe Siouxland is a great place to live and raise kids and I'm so excited to share that with you all. For more info on me personally, check out my "about me" page but for more info on this website and what to expect here, keep reading. Thanks for stopping by!

On this site you will find:

  • Events happening in Sioux City, like parades, storytimes, crafts, and concerts
  • Local attractions like nature centers, museums, playgrounds, and parks
  • Local food including restaurants plus recipes for local faves and my own personal favorite foods
  • Great destinations for day trips, weekend trips, and other road trips in our area


If you hear about a family friendly event or activity in Sioux City, Iowa; South Sioux City, Nebraska; North Sioux City, South Dakota, or surrounding communities in Northwest Iowa, Southeast South Dakota, or Northwestern Nebraska, please let me know!

Little Chicago Deli is coming back to Sioux City!

Sioux City's newest eatery isn't actually new--it's just the newest iteration of a classic! Little Chicago Deli is opening in a new location just a couple doors down from the original restaurant, and they're opening on Friday May 31, 2024, for pickup orders and delivery, with the dining lobby opening later in summer 2024. Here's the info we have so far on Sioux City's new Little Chicago Deli: History of Little Chicago Deli Little Chicago Deli has been around Sioux City since 1988 as a locally owned sandwich shop, but unfortunately the previous location closed in 2017. Prior to that, I remember going there in college while I was doing an internship downtown, and I was sad to hear the original closed. But new owners, including some staff from the old Little Chicago Deli, are bringing it back in 2024! The name pays homage to local legends about Sioux City during Prohibition. For starters, Prohibition was widely ignored in Sioux City
