In Paris's 11th arrondissement, the Clown Bar is a historic gem known for its Belle Époque charm, inventive cuisine and vibrant atmosphere. Its staff wear this exclusive half-apron as the official uniform of the house: a knee-length piece of heavy cotton canvas, embroidered with the Clown Bar's iconic logo. Finely made and built for daily service, it brings the same practical elegance and French craftsmanship to your own kitchen.
Le Clown Bar is a historic gem in Paris, located near the iconic Cirque d’Hiver.
