    The chocolate is really delicious. However, the owners could be a bit friendlier. You don't really feel comfortable in the shop.

    Franz-Xaver Clement's glass factory is housed in the historic train station building in Bernried, an unplastered brick building built around 1865. Regional trains still stop here. While you wait for the train, you can look over the chocolatier's shoulder as he works.
