Hamburger Restaurant, Haltom City, Texas
Clown Hamburgers is located in Haltom City, Texas, just east of Fort Worth. It came into existence in 1959, but closed in 1995 due to flooding. The restaurant has since reopened and been fully restored to its original format, making it a 'retro' diner, complete with the original sign, which is short in stature.
