Come relax in Door County
Things are warming up in Door County and there is so much to do this time of year. June is a wonderful month to make a trip to Door County! The weather is pleasant, all the stores and restaurants are open for the season, and the county is still pretty quiet (the busy season starts in July). So you can have a relaxing day shopping at the Tannenbaum Holiday Shop, stop across the street for some ice cream, and sit on the beach enjoying the sunset without having to compete with traffic. The month of June is an exciting month for us at Tannenbaum as this is when we get the most new merchandise in the store. So every day there is something new to see!

the best pizzeria around. Cracking stucco proves that this family owned establishment has served the neighborhood for decades. Grab a slice to go from the pizza displayed at the carryout window in front. Or, step away from the bustle of the holidays and come inside to relax in the dining room. Each pie is hand-tossed and made from the freshest ingredients using old world recipes. A pizzeria would not be complete without customers.
Pizza Date is a couple picking up takeout from their beloved Sal's.
