Do you know "Milk Shop Dairy (Raku)" on the platform (Sobu Line) of JR Akihabara Station Line 6? It is a milk stand (standing-drinking milk shop) that sells bottled milk, derivative beverages, and small sweet buns.
I arrived around noon on weekdays. There is a wide range of customers, including office workers in suits, young women, families and customers.
From bottled milk, which is often found in public baths, to fruit milk, yogurt to drink, and black vinegar. Even vegetable juice and green juice are sold. Some of them can be taken home, but most of the products are promised to be opened on the spot.
Also sells bread and rice balls
The author bought "Dairy farmer limited Shinshu Azumino milk (130 yen including tax), which won the 1st place in the 4th local milk general election, and a little unusual" freshly squeezed green juice (160 yen including tax) ".
Normally, a female staff member removes the package and unplugs it at the same time as purchasing it, but when I saw the camera hanging from my neck, he said, "I'll open it after taking a picture." Thankfully I received it as it was.

Dairy Farmers Only Shinshu Azumino Milk is a slightly luxurious package. Only raw milk squeezed by 6 dairy farmers in Azumino is used, and it is bottled fresh at Shinshu Milk Land in Azumino.

The taste is much refreshing than you can imagine, and it's a drink that's easy to drink. It's an aftertaste that even people who don't like milk can get rid of.
■ Freshly squeezed green juice
"Freshly squeezed green juice" labeled as 100% kale is hmm! It's really bitter! It tastes really good for you. In the morning, when I still feel sleepy, I'll wake up if I take a quick drink.
Shake well before drinking
When I asked the staff about the selling points when the wave of customers was interrupted, "Coffee milk (100 yen including tax)" was the most popular. It's probably very easy to buy with one coin.

Depending on the type, hot is also offered at this shop. I asked for hot coffee milk because it was a big deal.
The cold milk was good, but the warmth is still comfortable this season. People who say, "I'm hungry when I drink cold milk ..." can enjoy it deliciously.
I was observing the shop while drinking three drinks, and the cooperation between the staff and the customers is wonderful. Since the process from ordering to delivery of charges and products to collection of bottles is done quickly, the rotation is fast and customers can be replaced smoothly. I'm happy with this sense of speed on busy mornings.
Let's drink quickly and go home quickly
A milk stand that is rarely seen these days. If you have the time to use the Sobu Line, may you try getting off at Akihabara?
By the way, there is a "milk and bread shop milk stand" on the 5th platform on the other side. I plan to check this out soon.
