Rikko Gelato on Shimozato-dori in Hirara makes gelato from Miyako fruit and snow salt, and it ranks as the top-rated sweet shop on Miyako on Tabelog.
Rikko's flavours change with the island harvest, and reviewers in September and October 2026 order Miyako melon and the salty-sweet Yukishio soft serve. The shop sits on the busiest stretch of Shimozato in the centre of Hirara. Its hours are short and split, so check the Instagram before you ride in. From 17:45 the counter sells packed gelato only.
