This place has been around forever! We spoke with many parents who were bringing in their children, who said they used to visit when they were kids (It also looks as though it's been here forever, too, but that's half the charm). The staff was very friendly and helpful. Hand scooped ice cream, novelties, and a wall of individual candies. Of course, the clown collection is the real draw.

Nestled in a nondescript strip mall on the east side of Columbus is Clown Cone and Confections, a mom-and-pop ice cream shop operating for over 30 years. The shop sells all the usual flavors, along with all sorts of candy and random toys. Its claim to fame is hundreds of clowns and all kinds of clown paraphernalia filling the shop. Don't ask to buy any because their clown collection is not for sale!
