Allen Street's BonBon Opens Third Location in the UES
Known for stocking its shelves only with imported candy from Sweden, BonBon first opened in 2018.
Lower East Side, Swedish-owned candy shop, whose first location is on Allen St, opened a third store on the Upper East Side on Tuesday (9/6) last week.
Known for stocking its shelves only with imported candy from Sweden, BonBon first opened in 2018 on Allen Street right above Delancey. Business partners Bobby Persson, Leonard Schaltz, and Selim Adira opened a second location in Williamsburg in 2021.
The shop is known for its accessibility, offering candy to the lazy (they deliver), the late night snackers (open until midnight), and the dietarily challenged (most candy is vegan and/or gluten free).
Find their new location at 1220 Lexington Ave, just above 82nd St.!
