    Love, love, this place! Everything about it is spectacular & I'm rather hard to impress I'm told ;) it's in a former theatre & roller rink & the owners have spurred neighborhood development & backed charities galore besides having the best soup's & furniture & things you didn't know existed but just want. Bring your wallet but it's an experience. Loved the cocktails & the decorations on the table were antique roller skates! Also, IF you're from the area you'll remember Boblo & I included photos of some of the roller coaster cars. I love the mushrooms soup & the butter nut squash especially!! The service is excellent & I loved the hostess putting my heavy backpack on a child's antique chair underneath the table. This is the kind of attention to detail that is hard to find these days. There is outdoor dining that's a lovely space. I'd eat there every day if I could afford to when I'm in town. I never fail to visit at least several times when I'm in Clawson, Michigan. Do not miss this place because next door is interior decorating & furniture to die for as they say. Best employees ever. I still remember Neal from 2 years ago in the furniture department.

    Dear Mary Liz and Logan Thank you for the great day our Oakland Literacy Council volunteers spent at Leon & Lulu. We got to have great conversations with your customers, meet some very cool authors, and of course do some shopping! Many thanks also for your generous donation. Over the years, the generosity of Leon & Lulu has made a big difference for the council, enabling us to serve more people and expand our offerings to also include digital literacy, basic numeracy, and GED instruction. You're making a difference!! Ann Nazareth Manning

    While there are some pricey furniture here, the little knick knacks are reasonable and unique. Many smart ass ones that if you have a picky friend to buy for come here. I have brought books, coaster, socks, and decor that adds character to my place. Anytime I am in Clawson, I try to make time to see what is new. Free parking in the back with a door to enter. I am glad they survived 2020.

    I had SO much fun visiting this store for the first time last week!!! To s of good gift ideas, and the decorating is just amazing. I felt like I was on a movie set. Well-curated, unique products, and good vibes

    I love walking into this store during holidays. The decor is always so unique. I love how she puts new things with old vintage pieces. She used to have alot more vintage pieces but i'm seeing less. The things in this store are unique and the owner has a amazing eye finding things.

    Here's my typical gift buying process: Think. Stall. Stress. Want to buy something online but it's too late. Panic. Settle. Here was my gift buying process at Leon & Lulu: Oh cool. Perfect. Cha-ching! This huge, former roller rink is brimming with quality gifts, furniture, and a million other keenly chosen stylish knickknacks. A little bit of World Market, a little bit of a vintage toy store, a little West Elm, it's hard to explain succinctly what Leon & Lulu is until you set foot in it. I was here for a Yelp event and discovered this gem and can totally see how it's a destination spot for locals. They also own the former Clawson theater next door and have refurbished it in equally cool fashion. Every person I interacted with here was equally wonderful, with a positive radiance that fit the store itself.

That experience is why I ended up buying everything for my condo from him except the sofa and bed.

He also reeked of cigarette smoke. Not at all what I'd expect from a store on the outskirts of Birmingham. They had actually had a lot of really cool stuff in there, but I would never give my money to a place that employs such a jerk! Good luck!

It's clean, and the displays furnishings are nicely set up so you can stroll through and see little vignettes of chairs/tables/mirrors/lamps/cabinets all set up. I felt like I was wandering a furniture store rather than looking at second hand finds. Lots of treasures here. From large ornate mirrors, lamps, and art to collectibles from all around the world. There was a fair number of Asian collectibles. Sometimes an item was being passed off as "antique" when it looked like it might be more of the Pier1 variety, but I'll let it slide. As far as style, there are a lot of 90 and early 2000's trends represented. I bet Monica or Rachel from Friends would shop here. Haha! Don't expect thrift store cheap prices. It's not necessarily for bargain hunters. But if you want a nice piece of ornate furniture second-hand, I'd recommend you stop here to shop. Park directly in front of the store, or in the overflow parking lot at the motel next door. I am giving it four stars because it's a nice shop and I have almost no complaints. To get 5 stars it would have to really stand out from other shops. Perhaps have some more contemporary styles represented at more enticing price points.

Please see below After months of LIES, DECEIT & broken promises of delivery for furniture that I PAID for I finally received a resolution thanks to Cree from the Royal Oak location of the House of Detroit. I placed my original order at The house of Detroit Dearborn location which Sylvia runs. I was supposed to receive my delivery on 2/5 but no one called to schedule a delivery time. I called on 2/6 but no one answered, I finally was able to reach someone in the store who informed me that due to the weather there was a delay with the pick up from their warehouse & someone would call me the next day to schedule the delivery the time. Well no one called, no one answered the phone or was at the location. For weeks I reached out by phone, messenger, email and visited the location but didn't get anywhere, the store had a hand written note on the door to reach out to them by email but those emails were never answered. The neighboring business told me that other other customers had stopped in to see if anyone had been to the store because they also paid for furniture & was being ghosted by the owner.. Finally after not getting a single response I was connected with Cree who contacted Sylvia directly regarding my order. I was informed by Sylvia that my order would be delivered the following week. Of course it never happened she never answered her phone again but did relay messages through Cree stating 2 more delivery dates but that was just another lie.. I'm extremely grateful to Cree for ALWAYS being patient & professional with me even though my transaction was not with her or her location. Her hands were tied she was just the middle man! Cree answered every call & text in an attempt to get the original transaction resolved. It was because of her that I finally got this resolved and was able to purchase my items from her location. My items arrived earlier than expected with not one issue at all. I feel bad that she's had to deal with clients from the other location who's orders were not fulfilled or could not reach the owner but am grateful for her for going above & beyond, her good customer service, compassion & professionalism in getting this resolved for me.. I look forward to doing future business with HER for other items. I highly recommend The House of Detroit ROYAL OAK location for your next furniture purchase.

New, horrible people with the most toxic store culture now badly manage it, staff it, and over price it. Nose rings girl wouldn't let my friend use the bathroom, told her to walk down the block on a cold to other shops where there wasn't a bathroom available so she returned and told them she was having an acccident in her pants so the manager, Rachel, finallly let her in. Accident wouldn't have happened if she'd been let in the first time. I was shopping the whole time and unaware all this happened. After 20 minutes in the store, I started looking for my friend and asked sales staff if they had seen her. It was a cold windy day when nose rings girl told my friend to walk down the block. Orangey haired sales person and Rachel then double teamed me. One of them said, "This is why we don't let people use the bathroom. They always leave a puddle on the floor. It's mot my job to clean up their messes. CLEAN UP HER MESS!" I tried to explain that she wasn't my relative. They knew nothing about me and my relationship to my friend. I tried to explain but they kept ORDERING ME to clean up her mess. They said they were picking out used slacks for her so I went out to the pants rack to pick out a pair and told them so. There waa one if them picking out a pair so long my friend who is tiny woukd have tripped and falken them. I said, "These pants are too long, let me pick a pair" but she bizarrely replied, "We don't hem pants " I replied, "Hemming? This is a used clothing store and so I wouldn't assume you do tailoring!" She wouldn't let me pick out pants so I said, "I will pay for them." She still wouldn't let me pick them out and would not acquiesce to my request. So we both arrive in the bathroom area where the other one was loudly saying to my friend, who didn't need pants, "Your friend isn't happy with me" repeatedly, bad mouthing me to her. I interjected, "How dare you speak for me!" but this didn't stop her monologue about me. Nor was I going to clean up their bathroom. Unbelievable. If this was their "protocol" how many other people had they bullied and treated in a nasty, dehumanizing way? I had enough and said to my friend; "Let's go! I have been a customer for over 30 years and I'm never coming back." Punchline: my friend had been wearing Depends and didn't mess up their bathroom. Also my friend and I are Jewish and it felt like employees committed an antisemitic hate crime against me.
