Milk Hall

Milk Hall (ミルクホール) is a popular shop facing National Route 239 in Okoppe town located in the northeastern direction of Asahikawa city, and is near Atago Shrine (愛宕神社), and has been opened since 1991. North Plain Farm directly manages the shop, and it is located in a part of a large ranch of the North Plain Farm. The Milk Hall has a cafe area and a shop area, and they sereve hamburg steak, steak, curry and rice, drinks, soft serve ice cream, baked confectionery, cheese, Yogurt and milk. Speaking of the North Plain Farm, Okoppe Milk (おこっぺ牛乳) is famous, and the farm is also well-known for producing Creamy Caramel Candy (生キャラメル) for the first time.

The shop is stylish western-like building, and a lot of woods are used as the interior decoration, so the warmth of the woods is felt. Counter seats and table seats are provided at the cafe area, so I guess that even family customers enjoy meals.

Soft Serve Ice Cream

Since I came to the Okoppe that was famous for fresh milk, I thought that their soft serve ice cream should be very tasty, so I dropped by here. Although that day was a weekday, the shop was full of customers. I observed a lot of them that purchased yogurts and waffle corns their while forming a line. I ordered a soft serve ice cream at a cash desk. The price was JPY 300.

I decided to eat it outside while seeing a ranch. The soft serve was made from only the Okoppe Milk without raw materials such as egg and vanilla bean. As I expected, the soft serve was rich taste, and it was easy to melt. This was an evidence for fresh milk. It was tasty! Besides, I felt that even an ice cream cone was also tasty. If one thing was tasty, I guessed that a chain reaction was caused. Thanks for the tasty soft serve.
