I rarely stop by somewhere to eat soft serve ice cream, but I found out that there is a popular soft serve ice cream shop among bikers in Otaru, so I visited it after enjoying delicious sushi in Iwanai Town. The shop is located a little away from the bustling tourist center, which is actually convenient without the crowds. There were about 10 motorcycles around the shop, indicating its popularity among bikers. The shop is run by a woman, and her Kawasaki motorcycle, which is her beloved vehicle, is displayed inside the shop. So, the female shop owner is also a biker, which is why the shop is popular among bikers. The soft serve ice cream comes in three flavors: vanilla, chocolate, and mix, and you can choose between a cone and a cup. I personally prefer vanilla when it comes to soft serve ice cream, so I ordered a vanilla cone. I sat on a bench next to the shop entrance and enjoyed the vanilla soft serve, exclaiming, "Oh, delicious!" It was delicious with just the right amount of sweetness. My preference for soft serve ice cream is that it should not be too sweet, as I find overly sweet soft serve makes me thirsty after eating it. The vanilla soft serve here was so tasty that I felt like having another one after finishing it. The price of 290 yen was also a pleasant surprise.

This place seems to be a gathering spot for bikers. There were a lot of people in front of the shop. The nearby Lawson also felt a bit sketchy, but the soft serve ice cream was delicious! I don't usually eat ramune flavored soft serve, so it was a fresh experience. I ordered the mix, so the refreshing taste of ramune combined with the rich taste of milk was really good. It was a hot day, so the ramune made my mouth feel refreshed! It cheered me up! There are various soft serve flavors in Otaru, so it's fun! Thank you for the meal.

I will have dessert here after having lunch at a nearby set meal restaurant (*^^*) I had no idea, but apparently this place is super famous among bikers who travel by motorcycle. I had no idea (;´∀｀) By the way, on August 19th, which is Bike Day, if you go on a motorcycle or road bike, the 290 yen soft serve ice cream is discounted to 230 yen! It would be fun if they had a rock-paper-scissors discount based on the name of the shop, right? The flavors available that day were vanilla, chocolate, and mix, and you could choose between a cone or a cup for each. You could also change to a waffle cone for an additional 50 yen. The friendly and cheerful service from the lady, I ordered the mix in a cup (290 yen) and enjoyed it in my car! The vanilla and chocolate were sweet and creamy, reminiscent of the soft serve I had in junior high at Chiaian, Crystal Town. I'm not sure if they change flavors weekly or daily, but I heard there are days with strawberry instead of chocolate, so I'd like to try that next time! Thank you, "Jan-Ken"!

From early morning, I went on a stroll around "Otaru Temiya" area, and the third stop was at "Soft Cream Janken," a long-established ice cream shop. Finally, I visited this shop which is rumored to have good cost performance and delicious soft serve ice cream. Upon entering the shop, I was greeted by a friendly woman working alone. I ordered the usual "Soft Cream @290 yen" in a cone with vanilla flavor. The ice cream was handed to me after a short wait, and I was warned to be careful as it might easily topple. Walking towards the park with a fountain across the road from the shop, I took a bite of the ice cream. It was delicious, with a high-quality whipped texture that was airy and light, not too sweet. As I had read in other reviews, I felt like I could easily eat two or three of them. This ice cream was definitely made with a high-end machine. Despite the shop being popular among motorcyclists (as mentioned in other reviews), it is worth a visit for anyone. Priced at 290 yen, the size of the ice cream is generous and satisfying, comparable to those from other shops. Thank you for the treat!

I went to the opening of the new season at the restaurant today. For the first 5 days, the regular price of 280 yen was reduced to 230 yen. I have been coming back here many times since last year because I seem to be hooked on their soft serve ice cream. Although there are other delicious shops in the city, whenever I crave soft serve ice cream, I always end up coming here. I think this place is my favorite. The Choco Mix soft serve (230 yen) is smooth, rich, and delicious as always. I will definitely be back. Thank you for the meal!

The appearance of this soft serve ice cream shop is quite stylish. There are many photos inside the store as well. I wonder if everyone stops by here? I tried the vanilla soft serve ice cream. It's not made with milk, but it has that nostalgic feel of "The Soft Serve!" It's cheap. There's no parking lot, but you can park at the convenience store across the street (lol).

I completely fell in love with the soft serve ice cream here and had it two days in a row, yesterday and today. Yesterday I had the yogurt mix flavor, which had a strong yogurt taste and was delicious. Today I tried the vanilla flavor, which was refreshing yet rich. Both flavors were so delicious that they disappeared in no time. I will definitely go back for more. I also bought the "Tiger's Paw Puni Puni" meat bun, supervised by the owner of "Ramen Tiger" using ramen noodles, chashu, and menma. I brought it home and microwaved it. It was ready in 2 minutes and 30 seconds to 3 minutes and 10 seconds at 500 watts. The bun was chewy and the filling had a nice savory taste. Although I couldn't quite tell about the noodles, the ingredients from the ramen shop are always delicious! I will definitely be a repeat customer for both the soft serve ice cream and the meat bun. Thank you for the delicious meal!

This is a soft serve ice cream shop located at the end of the Otaru North Canal. On a sunny day perfect for motorcycle touring, you often see riders enjoying their ice cream. I also ride a motorcycle, but this time I visited by car. This shop offers great value for money. The regular size is 280 yen. They also have a mini soft serve for 230 yen. In fact, there is another shop in Otaru that offers mini soft serve, "Yamanaka Farm Otaru Shop," also for 230 yen. They have the same price, but the types of soft serve are different. "Janken" has a smooth and creamy texture, while "Yamanaka Farm" has a more icy texture. Both have a rich flavor of soft serve. It might be interesting to compare them while strolling around Otaru. Even though it's a mini size for 230 yen, it's not that small. Enjoying an ice cream while looking at the nostalgic atmosphere of the North Canal is best at "Janken."

Around Golden Week in May 2020, Toto wanted to go here! Toto didn't want to go! I also want to go, Toto! It's a 2:1 loss, isn't it (^-^ゞ After having a satisfying lunch, they suggested going to see the beautiful cherry blossoms, but I ignored them and headed towards the direction where the soft serve ice cream statue was. I bought a mixed flavor for 280 yen. Soft serve ice cream is the best on a sunny day! When we were about to leave the shop, the two who were supposed to go see the flowers... What's with this "food over flowers" situation? I decided not to have close contact with them anymore, Totoron! (laughs)

I was really full after eating soup curry, but I always crave something cold after curry. I have a separate stomach, so it's okay! I remembered that this shop was nearby and decided to come. It was my first visit. It looks like they have been open since April 18th this year. I'm glad they were open. They also sell sweet potato and there was a coffee sign, so they must have coffee too. But my goal was the soft serve ice cream. I got the chocolate mix (280 yen). It was rich and smooth~! Delicious! The aftertaste is refreshing too. This soft serve ice cream is really to my liking! I have to come back here again. Thank you for the meal~.

Nocchimu-san and I went on an expedition to Otaru. After enjoying delicious soba for lunch, we headed to the central area of Otaru. We searched for a dessert shop that we had bookmarked and found it. The shop was located on the north side of the canal, towards the back. The exterior wall was covered with wooden planks filled with messages. I was planning to order soft serve ice cream, but the staff informed us that it would take about 3 minutes to prepare the chocolate flavor. While waiting, I looked at the messages on the wall, many of which were written by tourists. It seemed fun to write a message while waiting. By the way, Nocchimu-san also drew a character from a popular anime series. I ordered a mixed soft serve for 280 yen, which was relatively affordable. The ice cream had a rich flavor, with a noticeable cocoa taste in the chocolate. The portion was decent for the price, and I was satisfied. The shop also sold other items besides soft serve, so I might try them next time. Thank you for the meal!

After eating delicious soba noodles and surprisingly waking up early, I had plenty of time on my hands. So, I decided to visit a shop that caught my eye in Otaru! It seems they have a weekly special featuring either strawberries or chocolate, and when I went, it was chocolate week. They were just about to run out, but if I waited 3-4 minutes, they could make more. While waiting, I doodled on a wooden message card as a memento of my trip, and before I knew it, the time had passed quickly. I ordered the mixed soft serve (chocolate flavor), which had a slightly cocoa-like, refreshing chocolate taste (with a fairly light milk flavor). The best part was the great value for the price. The view was also nice! I felt like I had discovered a hidden gem and had a great time. Thank you, Wu-ta-san!

On a certain holiday, I visited a soft serve ice cream shop in Otaru, located near the Color Canal on Sakaemachi 3rd street. Despite it being May, the temperature in Hokkaido was over 30 degrees Celsius, attracting many customers to the shop. I decided to try something different from the regular soft serve ice cream, so I ordered the Cream Zenzai (350 yen). I couldn't find a place to sit along the canal, so I sat on a bench outside the shop and took a bite. The ice cream had a smooth texture and a traditional taste, with a rich and creamy flavor. The combination of green and pink mochi, white rice dumplings, and sweet red bean paste made it a delightful treat in the hot weather. I believe there are people who would enjoy this unique soft serve ice cream, so I hope the shop continues to do well. Thank you for the meal.

I stopped by on my way and saw a lot of people, so I thought the food must be delicious. I later found out that there were many bikers? I felt it was just normal. Was it just a coincidence?? Thank you for the meal.

I saw it on a 2chan summary and it seems quite rich and delicious. 290 yen is cheap, so I recommend it.

It was more on the creamy side, not exactly my taste preference but still enjoyable to eat.
