Food Scene
Fuel and Fuddle is a lively little joint in the heart of Oakland that serves great wildfire food and chilled beer on tap. A local food critic once described our food as “upscale west coast bar food.” We have no idea what that means, but we like the way it sounds.

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood... and on our outdoor porch! After a long winter that turned into a chilly spring, the sun is finally shining and we can hear the birds chirping.

From hand-crafted cocktails to our selection of seasonal specials, we have that something special to help kick off al fresco dining season.

According to Joe’s cousin John DiPriter: "One winter, a fella drove in with a load of potatoes. He brought a few of 'em over to the restaurant to see if they were frozen. I fried the potatoes on our grill and they looked pretty good. A few of our customers asked for them, so I put the potatoes on their sandwiches.” Simple!
