    Clown cone menu
    Alexandra E.

    Always such a chill vibe. So much variety from flavors of ice cream to types of candy. Wonderful prices and great for the whole family. Hidden in the heart of northern lights this little candy shop is full of surprises. You won't be disappointed. Check out the menu!

    I love this place I've been coming here since I was a little kid. I much rather support local vs baskin robins or UDF. Quality, price, & variety are way way better.

    Awww the classics

    I love and I mean I love this place but can not stand the surrounding area. This place is a timeless classic for people who lived in the north side of columbus. It holds a special place in my soul. When you see the store you automatically have a smile and your inner child is reborn. The traffic light in the widow lets you know you're at the right place. I'm amazed at the back in time decor of the inside. All kind of toys line the walls and old school posters. And yes there are clowns every where in this store. I dont like clowns but in here they seem ok. I guess because they're ice cream clowns lol. And yeah there are puzzles on the walls as well which I find to be neat. The guy who owns the place has been working here for decades. With the same red hair and oval glasses. He is a God send let me tell you. He is always kind and friendly. And doesn't skip on the ice cream. I wish they could clone him and put him in every ice cream parlor. Now for the ice cream. Soooo in all my years I have sampled different flavors but always and I mean always end up with the same order lol. A waffle cone with one scoop of blue moon and one scoop of superman ice cream. You cant go wrong with that option. And in all the years I've ordered this the guy always puts blue moon on the bottom and superman on the top. Its like he knows me and can read my mind. Now the store is very small and always has a line and you may not be greeted when you walk in the door(mainly because they cant see you over all the other customers). But once its your turn your treated with great customer service. Ive never had an order messed up or any confusion about my bill. The regulars understand the process. So just relax and you'll get your time in the lime light. This place is one of a kind!

    first visit last night... ok so i am going to rate this for what it is: a niche ice cream shop with AMAZING ice cream, cheap candy, and a theme that most people are too chicken to do! for goodness sake... y'all, the trash can is even a giant human sized yellow... thing with that said, the ice cream (which is AMAAAAAAZING!) is like $2 for a small cone, the candies are amazing, and the staff was really nice and sweet, too! they were training a new guy which put a lot of people behind that there counter, (four in a pretty small space for four men!) and they worked like a charm! i got the cherry ice cream myself, it was super soft but SOOOO delicious! then some sour gummy geckos, chewy sweet tarts, stuff like that... with two cones and a LOT of candy we walked out under $10 y'all, and will be back next time in town! (debating gn on going back today after the heat of the zoo before we go home, truth be told )

    Clown Cone decor, clowns everywhere!

    Will you get exotic flavors made with flowers, champagne, and spices you can't pronounce - no. You will get good classic flavors and a trip down memory lane. Old school describes Clown Cone. It has a true penny candy store/ice cream parlor feel to it, minus the counter with stools. The ice cream is good, traditional flavors with a few fancy, done very well specialty blends. The banana pudding is pretty spectacular, one of my faves. Birthday cake, salty toffee caramel, red velvet are a few great flavors worth trying. Along with ice cream is an assortment of penny/nickel candy to choose from. The place is very, very small with limited seating, actually maybe only one table and chair. It is always crowded - line outside the door crowded. You can easily drive by and totally miss Clown Cone because it sits back behind the main Northern Lights shopping center. It's located in its own mini strip of stores. Even though it's old school/retro, credit cards are accepted. It's definitely worth checking out. I almost forgot to mention the clowns, they're everywhere. Seriously, everywhere- hanging from the ceiling, sitting on shelves, pinned to the wall everywhere. A few are down right creepy. This also adds to why you need to come check out Clown Cone

    Buckeye Candy Company has 29 reviews, 28 of them are 5 stars. There's a good reason for this…read more It's a great candy store that's filled full of almost every kind of sweets and chocolates you can imagine from, hard to find, to retro and imports. What are some of my favorite chocolate bars that I found? Aero Zagnut Clark Heath Zero Chik 'O Stix Curly Whirly Skor (I just wish they'd carry Roshen brand, from Ukraine. One of the "hidden gems" in the chocolate world). Anyways, it's a great specialty shop to explore for yourself. You'll find many of your old favorites and maybe something new to try. 5 stars And Here's Another Morsel For You To Nibble On: * Use your Yelp check-in to get a 10% discount. * Wanting a gift for someone? How about getting them a selection of unusual chocolate bars? * They also have an interesting selection of sodas. * Be sure to check out their markdown section for some great deals!

    I haven't updated since they moved? Well, they moved, down the street a bit, into the old Swan…read moreCleaners. About 4 times as big, still stuffed with good things. Nostalgic candy, the latest TikTok trends, imports, seasonal, etc. Right now a lot of fun Christmas things. Raindeer poop gummies, old-fashioned ribbon candy, and much more. Plus some pop, fudge, bulk stuff, and a clearance table. Fun place, nice owners, astonishing assortment of treats.
