While visiting Cologne during the holidays, we decided to take a short day trip out to Bonn since…read morewe'd never been before. Imagine our surprise and delight when we discovered that the Haribo factory store was located in town! My husband LOVES gummi bears, so we made a beeline to check it out. This is basically a factory store, so you're getting the freshest candies for wholesale-like prices (especially compared to prices on Haribo in the U.S.)! Think large bags of candy for around $1.50! This shop had pretty much every kind of Haribo candy you could ever want. The store doesn't have a big footprint, but they have stuffed every nook and cranny with gummi goodness. If you're looking for gummis by color, shape, flavor, and even self-serve, you're going to find it here! They have so much stuff, even vegetarian candy. It's not just gummi candy either -- you can find souvenirs with Haribo's signature adorable bow-clad bear. This is a great spot for unique gifts from Germany. We came out with several bags of candy, and, to the delight of our friends and coworkers, brought a few back with us on the plane. Everyone commented on the fun and unique flavors as well as the freshness of the products. The store also has displays with the history of the company as well as a couple of fun photo ops with the mascot bear. I think this fun and free activity should be a must-stop for anyone who loves candy.

If you love gummy's this is the place to get your fix. Decided to come here while taking a tour to…read moreBonn. First impressions was how big it was. The very definition of a kid in a candy store. Back home the typical set up has maybe 3-5 different types. Usually the standard gummy bear or cola plus some others. But this place has everyone that has been made to all the locations of Europe. There were easily 100 various types of shapes, sizes and flavors. And all at wholesale prices. The $2-3 markup gummies are only $.85. I ended up buying $50ish dollars worth of gummies that could easily have cost $100. My favorite was the iced tea gummy. Think of it as the gummy cola but lemon flavored iced tea. It's a seasonal item and i wished that I had bought more. The staff were helpful and spoke English. This place is a must for the gummy lover!

Root beer and cream soda, all kindsa beer. Cheese. They had all kinds of candy from my American childhood that I don't think they sell anymore back home - runts, nerds, lemonheads, mike and Ike's... It was a blast from the past. Staff were nice. : ) thank you.
