After I have downloaded Google Chrome because my Safari wasn't finding servers, multiple google apps appeared on my launchpad that I can't delete. I uploaded a picture so you understand what I'm talking about: http://i.imgur.com/KWy1yFV.png

@Rysz above totally don't understand whats going on.
NOT ALL the applications in launchpad will show up in the application folder.
Here is the right answer:
1.Go to Finder
2.Open your home folder (i.e. "/Users//")
3.Open "Applications"
4.You should be able to see a folder named "Chrome Apps"
5.Either you can delete this folder or open it and delete the apps one by one.

They are not in the applications folder.
Hi there, I have Google Chrome downloaded to my iMac but there is no folder for Chrome or Chrome apps. Where can it be hiding? Thanks!
Oh, the joys of selling your soul to Google...
You can't delete them just from Launchpad, but you can open your Applications folder and delete them from there.
If they are shown in Zlaunchpad, they're in the Applications folder or sub-folder.
Thanks ! Just installed Chrome on my new MacBook (for some specific work applications, otherwise I use Safari 99% of the time) and got this issue. Nice of Google to add these unwanted apps to my launchpad while 'hiding' what they did ... NOT !
Your solution helped me to get rid of them within 5 minutes. Much appreciated !

Sorry there is a Google Chrome app icon but no Chrome folder! Could it be somewhere else_
Try looking in your user Library.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library.
Thanks.
This worked for me
I just deleted the whole Google Apps Folder and got rid of everything but chrome with 1 click !!!
