Leon & Lulu

I was an online shopper but I recently ordered an item from the website that was out of stock and actually a recently discontinued piece by the artist. Leon & Lulu were prompt in immediately refunding my order when they learned that the artist was also out of stock of the particular item. Michelle went above and beyond and actually was able to locate the item at another gallery and put it on hold for my until I was able to get ahold of the other gallery. Outstanding service. I definitely plan to shop here again.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! So much fun to walk through with never ending, unique things to look at. There something for everyone and the same goes for the price range. My husband and I literally make it a date night to go peruse their wares and purchased some Christmas gifts while we were at it.

Leon & Lulu have a wide variety of home décor items. I literally spent over 30 minutes just browsing. There were entire sets of furniture with whimsical pillows and books. It is a fun place to visit. They have staff that are on roller skates to serve beverages. We found unique gift giving ideas and the staff was welcoming. It is a high end store with vintage, classic, and modern offerings.

I have a love hate thing for this place. I love everything and I hate it makes me want to redecorate my house the moment I step inside.
I mean I need everything.
If you need a unique gift or just something absolutely lovely for yourself then this is your one stop shop.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you though. I’m pretty sure you will spend way more than you intended to.
The staff here is fantastic and some wheel around on old school roller skates. Yep roller skates.
Need a cool Detroit or Michigan themed gift the shelf of items they have are well worth a peek.
‘Tis the season so head over and get your gift on!
Enjoy and I’ll totally accept any and all gifts from there you’d like to buy for me lol!

Since I’m so far from the area — I was very excited to attend an event hosted by Unilocal.There was so much cool and unique throughout the store but please note they are a little pricey for my taste. It reminds me of an expensive warehouse feel from furniture to tiny magnet that hangs on your refrigerator; I’ll be returning back I want something unique for home but unsure what I would like.

This place is amazing. I have fairly high expectations when it comes to local retailers and Leon & Lulu exceeded every single one.
Highlights:
*The space: Is gorgeous. Think Pottery Barn and Anthropologie had a beautiful baby. Throw in some Pier One for effect. It’s an old skating rink so the throwback roller skates add to the kitsch. There’s a sweet bar in the back and the entire space is beautiful for any type of event, especially considered how stunning their décor/​offerings already are.
*The offerings: I had shiny ball syndrome the entire time: clothing, furnishings, jewelry, bath products, kids items, scarves, socks, so much holiday gear, and probably 1,000 other categories of items I’m forgetting. Gifts for every person you can think of.
*The staff: Incredibly kind, generous and helpful. Top notch all the way around.
Leon & Lulu is tops! I dare you to go here and not buy everything.

Awesome store with weird books that cracked me up, I wanted to buy them all! Unfortunately like 95 percent of everything in the place is about 3x overpriced. That being said, it is cool stuff and if I was rich, I would indulge. Gave me daughter a bomb pop gratis, which I thought was a kind touch. It’s my old teenage haunt, the Ambassador Roller Rink and that’s cool too. If I even get money to burn, I’ll be back. Cool place. One star less for prices.

What a great store full of antiques, odd and fun novelties, and unique furniture! There are hilarious, novelty books like poems written by cats and dogs, interesting Michigan décor, and funny jokster items.
I loved the stuffed knitted mermaid, but was so sad when I saw it was $ 50! I realized as much as I loved everything in this remodeled roller rink, there’s no way I could afford to purchase anything here, unfortunately.
It is beautiful, with so many beautiful items, but definitely just a place to have fun, look around and enjoy the nostalgia.
We loved the atmosphere, the bar hop gave my daughter a free popsicle-​which she loved, and she wanted to follow the bar hop around as she skated around the store. The staff is genuinely friendly, and we had a really lovely time seeing all the unique and antique offerings they had.

After I got over my near-​crying-​in-​public episode when I realized that this store was the roller rink of my childhood, I have to say this place is the greatest. It’s expensive (no way around saying that when you see $ 62 candles), but every item in the store adds character to your house. I bought myself a collection of housewarming gifts for my new place, and I can’t wait to pull them out again!

Unique store with pretty cool home furnishing and décor. Only problem, I can’t afford anything in the place! I fell in love with a throw pillow but had to put it down, it was $ 350!!! Holy yikes!
I stopped in today for the local artist market, I was kind of let down. Not a very diverse selection of vendors/​items.

This is my favorite furniture store in Michigan. You walk in and are overwhelmed by the abundance of furniture of different shapes and sized. as you wander, you are served drinks and cookies by associates on roller skates (a nod to the building’s past life.) The associates are exceedingly helpful and are not on commission.
My favorite thing about this shop is that you can pick out your couch, chair, or whatever and then still pick out the exact fabric of choice. They have hundreds of different fabrics of all colors and qualities to choose from. It takes 6 – 8 weeks to get a custom sofa, but it’s worth it.
The prices are lower that you’d see at Crate and Barrel or Pottery Barn, and the quality and style is so much better.

Okay get ready to string me up for saying this but I despise places like this.
Sure the store is cute, it’s local, it’s trendy etc…
But everything is by it’s very nature a gigantic ripp off and totally unnecessary.
There is nothing essential or should I say practical in this shop.
My wife loved it.
I just followed her around and scoffed at all the price tags.
I played a little secret guessing game with myself every time I checked a price tag.
«Oh look a broken statute thing, I bet these pretentious folks think it’s worth $ 200. «
“Oh snap! It’s $ 800!»
«I wouldn’t take it if it was sitting next to the dumpster»
Lol

This place is just fantastic. It’s huge and full of gifts and things. Since it’s a former skating rink, I had to check it out. Thanks to Unilocal Event planning, I did. I’ll be back, many many times. I fear my purse will be lighter after leaving as it was the first time I visited (all for a great cause).

REALLY cute store. It has tons of unique gifts and furniture, broken up into sections of similar things like a Michigan-​themed area, books, cooking utensils, etc.
A lot of the stuff is quite expensive, which is the only reason they’re not getting five stars. I mean, we’re talking chairs priced in the hundreds… the prices seemed out of place in such a homey, down-​to-​earth atmosphere.

Can I just say that I love places like this? Yes, I love to support local artists, and you will find plenty here. Such a great variety of items, from scarves and women’s clothing, to jewelry to books galore, paintings, home décor and tons of little things that make you want to pick them up, study them or say, wow, why didn’t I think of that?!
I can’t believe how big this place is and every square inch is filled with something different and unique. Want a special gift, come here. Want to spruce up a room in your house? This is the place! Want to get out with the girlfriends to shop? You better put this place on your list.
I was here for a Unilocal event — the staff was just fabulous. And I have a feeling they are always like that. Very warm and inviting place and I can’t wait to go back. Glad I discovered it just in time for Christmas shopping!

Very unique store. We went for there for a Unilocal charity event and had a great time. They have a great variety of unique gifts and books and clothing. What’s really cool is that the store used to be Clawson roller rink.

I can’t gush enough about this place!
It’s in an old rollerskating rink. Has a really cool vibe, skates are hanging on the walls and some of the old wooden benches are still there. My guy used to skate here a kid! His friends’ parents used to own the place, so it brings back some happy memories for him.
Now it has amazing, unique furniture pieces, and the style is right up my alley. There is also some cool smaller pieces (picked up a beautiful tumbler set here as a gift with a smoky finish). They offer you popcorn, coffee when you walk in, and they are dog friendly!
I have only ever encountered very friendly and helpful staff. Stop in and check them out, I love to pop in here almost once a month now to see what new pieces they get in!

Love. This. Place. I first visited this fabulous store shortly after it opened, and I have been enthralled ever since. What distinguishes this store is the breadth of its offerings, from precious tchotchkes and accessories (some under $ 10) to unique, high-​end furniture and everything in between. Yet there is no chance that you will confuse this store with the home and housewares floor of Macy’s. Leon and Lulu’s offerings are well-​curated and full of attitude. No bland Nambe or boring Lenox here.
The space is inviting and fascinating. The eyes and feet are pulled from well-​constructed vignette to well-​constructed vignette. And the store tour is made all that much more joyful when powered by great coffee and warm cookies.
Every town should have a Leon & Lulu.

This little shop is really cool. They have a lot of great furniture (higher end/​pricier) and so many fun little knick knacks. As I am furnishing my house and buying gifts, I will definitely be back. I can’t wait to shop here once I have a little better funding. It’s in a fun location, inside an old roller rink. They have a little coffee bar, and an adorable (friendly) dog roaming around the store.
I will definitely be back, they lost a star solely because of price.

This is by far the most fun I’ve ever had at a furniture store! Or perhaps any retail store ever. My face hurt from smiling upon entering Leon & Lulu for the first time, because that grin never left my face until we were halfway home. What a great place! If you’ve read other reviews you’d already know that this place is an old roller rink, which is awesome. Skates draped everywhere, old signs from it’s former life placed high on the walls so you don’t forget the former glory, beautiful honey colored hardwood floors. Oh, and a member of the staff on roller skates! The old snack bar is still very functional, and they kindly offer free popcorn, home baked cookies, water and coffee while you browse. As if this wasn’t fantastic enough, the vibe is so relaxed. Don’t you hate shopping for furniture only to be stalked by some commission hungry salesman? Well, they don’t do that here. Sure, the staff is accessible for questions and purchases. But they don’t bug you. What a concept!!! Someone will ask you if you need help, and if you tell them you are just looking, they tell you to have fun! Then they vanish! Wow! Special thanks to Austin, who helped us on our last two visits here with our purchases. The first visit, we bought a super retro wall clock that we adored. And yesterday we bought a coffee table and console table that we had been obsessing over since our first visit. And Austin had them delivered the same day! Ok, the prices are not cheap. But neither is the quality of the furniture. This isn’t Ikea, but I don’t think the stuff is as pricey as a Crate & Barrel or Pottery Barn. And it’s nice to support small businesses, especially when they are this fantastic!
When our beloved tables were delivered, Leon & Lulu even sent us a gift bag! Who does that?! We now have two incredibly cute coffee mugs in addition to two tables in our living room that I’m actually excited for people to see.
We will see you when we’re ready to replace our dining room table! Love this place!!!
