The BEST Things to Do in Otaru, Japan|Otaru Day Trip

Cafe Whale-headed Stork is a newly opened shop on top of a hill in Irifune, Otaru, in December 2020. The hazel is a very large bird that lives around Lake Victoria in Africa and has become popular in recent years as a bird with a large head, a huge beak shaped like a wooden shoe, strong eyesight and almost no movement.

The shop is an old house café converted from an old house, with a Showa-era taste and a good atmosphere from the outside. Open the stylish door and enter, and you will immediately see a counter with five seats, two tables for two people and one table for four people. The chalk illustration of a loon on the wall board is very eye-catching.

The restaurant opens at 7am, which is unusual in Otaru, and offers a morning meal until 11am, with thick toast, boiled eggs and free refills of coffee for 350 yen, which is very attractive. You can also order a set menu for an extra 200 yen. You can enjoy a relaxing lunch while being healed by the calm atmosphere with soft sunlight.
