Approximately 1 hour and 38 minutes by car from Naha Airport. The cafe is located in the western part of Motobu Peninsula, in the northern part of Okinawa’s main island, close to Churaumi Aquarium. The antique building is lovely, but it is the spectacular view from the hilltop and the unique ice cream menu that are the main attractions.
Point 1: What is the location of “Ice Cream Cafe ARC”?
Ice-Clin Cafe ARC” is located in the western part of Motobu Peninsula in the northern part of Okinawa’s main island.
It is only an 11-minute drive to that “Churaumi Aquarium” and takes about 1 hour and 38 minutes from Naha Airport.
This “Aisukurin Cafe ARC” is located on a hill and looks like an old Western-style building, which fits the retro image of the “Aisukurin” that was established in Yokohama in the Meiji era.
While Okinawa has a strong “Blue Seal” brand, the fact that they dare to compete in Nago, an hour and a half away from Naha, suggests that they have a great deal of confidence in their product.
Point 2: What is the menu at “Ice Cream Cafe ARC” like?
The menu at Ice Culin Cafe ARC can be roughly divided into ice cream, drinks, and parfaits.
Parfaits are on the in-store menu, but the rest can be taken out.
Ice cream is a refreshing ice cream that was introduced to Yokohama in the Meiji era.
It is a food that tastes neither like sherbet nor ice cream.
Today, Okinawa is dominated by thick ice cream such as Blue Seal, which may or may not be fresh to those accustomed to that type of ice cream.
The high word-of-mouth evaluation suggests that the refreshing taste is well accepted.
Point 3: The parfait and waffles at “Ice Cream Cafe ARC” are the best!
Ice Cream Cafe ARC” has a menu of parfaits and handmade salty waffles.
The parfaits are beautifully colored and served with Okinawan fruits and cream made from Okinawan milk, making them very rich. The antique Western-style building and the view of the ocean from the hilltop make for a very Instagrammable experience.
The waffle is served in a crispy waffle cone with a slightly salty flavor, which makes the refreshing ice cream even more delicious.
The “Three Kinds of Ice Cream and Fruit Platter” is also a popular menu item that includes an assortment of fruit and ice cream.
The terrace seating and indoor seating with the windows fully open make it possible to enjoy a refreshing ice cream cone while feeling the ocean breeze! Please give it a try.
