I haven't had the pleasure of visiting The Clown in person, but they did help me arrange for delivery of a very nice bottle of champagne to a client who lived in the area. Not only did they deliver same day, she also package the bottle in a nice bag with a notecard! Highly recommend The Clown based on their selections... read full comment
