Sendlinger Str. 19, 80331 München-Altstadt-Lehel, Germany
Best for
Gummy-candy enthusiastsShoppers seeking distinctly sour sweets

Bears & Friends is a compact candy shop on Sendlinger Strasse in Munich’s Altstadt-Lehel, centered on fruit gummies and liquorice rather than conventional chocolate. Its confectionery concept dates back to 1995, with the emphasis firmly on variety, fruit-forward flavors, and playful sweet choices.

The small format suits a focused stop, particularly for gummy lovers seeking juicy textures or distinctly sour options. Approachable, enthusiastic guidance is a real strength: recommendations can be tailored to individual tastes, while samples may help narrow down the selection before choosing a flavor. For anyone exploring Munich’s confectionery shops, this works best as a specialist gummy-and-liquorice detour rather than a broad chocolate destination. The central location also fits conveniently into an Altstadt shopping route or a quick city-center treat stop.

The shop is especially useful for browsing rather than simply buying one product: edible treats sit alongside small gift items, drinks and postcard-style souvenirs. A friendly owner and a stylish atmosphere give the visit a personal character, while the central Sendlinger Straße location makes it convenient for a quick stop. Regular hours are 10 am to 7 pm Monday through Saturday, with Sunday closed.

Frequently asked questions

What type of chocolate shop should I choose in Munich?

Choose a dedicated chocolate shop or artisan when chocolate itself is the priority. A café suits an eat-in treat, while a confectionery or candy store makes more sense for a mixed selection extending to gummy or sour sweets.

Confirm the exact range before travelling.

Can I find premium chocolate gifts in Munich?

Yes. Läderach is especially relevant for premium chocolate gifts and for shoppers who want a polished present without losing sight of value.

Decide whether you prefer a premium shop selection or an own-brand maker’s range, then confirm that the desired products are available before your visit.

Which Munich shop suits a chocolate tasting?

chokoin is the clearest match for an immersive chocolate tasting and also has an own-brand shopping angle. Check whether a tasting is running on your intended day and whether advance arrangements are needed, since a retail visit and a tasting experience can have different availability.

Are there choices for gummy or sour candy as well?

Yes. Bears & Friends is relevant for gummy-candy enthusiasts and shoppers looking for distinctly sour sweets.

That makes it useful when a group does not want chocolate alone. Check the current selection before going if one particular candy style is essential.

How can I avoid a wasted trip?

First choose the format you need: gift shopping, in-store indulgence, a tasting, own-brand chocolate or a broader candy selection. Then contact the shop to confirm that the specific product or experience is available, particularly when your visit depends on a tasting or a niche sweet.
