Well, it's been awhile since the new owner took over Tannens and moved it to 34th St. Without getting into a flaming match, can anyone tell me if it's improved?

The store is bigger in size, everything is spread out more but the service was not the best considering the last time I was in there I was the only customer. I miss the snapple machine they had and now I have to go a little bit out of my way to get my traditional going to Tannens jelly donut on 5th and 31st.

Tannens...for some reason you can't take pictures of certain areas of the store, why I do not know considering there would be nothimg "exposed".
All in all I liked it, although when I asked to purchase some of their products I was told I could only get them by ordering online...that kinda sucked. The guy behind the counter remarked that they did the majority of their buisness online these days. johnny

Did Tannen's move? I seem to remember it was in the Toy District downtown Manhattan (20th St. or so) not too far from Abbacadabra? You had to go into a non-descript building, into an elevator, and then right into the store.

34th street. Halfway down the block, and listed in the phone book or from their website.

Tannens...right across the street from the Empire State Building, I tried to climb like Kong. I met Peter Scholari (Bosom Buddies,80's sitcom co-starring Tom Hanks)a couple blocks away. Polite guy this Peter Scholari and he has visited Tannens himself.
