Such a wonderful venue to host our daughter’s high school graduation party with inside/open to the outside seating in a reserved section.
The owners were wonderful to work with, very accommodating with decorations, graduation cake and such. They had a great suggestion for music and serving a special summer cocktail- basil infused lemonade vodka (adults) - — so yummy and served in mason jars with cute straws- great presentation.
We had a budget for dessert and kids loved getting ice cream from Creme.
We had a Buffett bar- choice of 4 items off the catering menu. The mini burgers were thick and juicy with choice of cheese and toppings. Sounds funny, but the mostaccoili was so good - even on a hot summer day- baked with some yummy seasoned cheese topping. And my favorite was the slower cooked shredded BBQ chicken on a brioche bun with horseradishes sirracha coleslaw- which you need to put right on the sandwich- the bomb!
Our family, friends and my daughter’s friends had a wonderful afternoon celebrating. Would highly recommend for a variety of events. They have more room than you think being able to expand/flow outside with large tent covered areas. Enjoy!
Ps - we even had Covid and had to change the date very last minute and Karen and Jack could not have been more accommodating. Give them a call!
Fuel & creme is a neighborhood gem for evening drinks and large gatherings alike.
This fun laid back event space was is exactly what we wanted for our reception of about 90.
All of our expectations were blown out of the water.
The Fuel staff helped with everything from menu choices to helping assemble table arrangements.
We ordered the build your own burger bar, bbq pork sandwhiches, mostaccoli and salad. We also had the manhatan and basil vodka lemonade as our feature cocktails. The food and bar service was top knotch. It is no surprise because their chef smokes all his meats himself. Service was fabulous!
This is a great space to host any kind of event.
Thank you for the perfect summer wedding party!
We had our engagement party at FUEL, and we couldn’t have made a better venue choice. From the kind and attentive staff, to the delicious food and drinks, everything was perfect. Karen, the co-owner of the establishment, was extremely communicative during the party planning stage, and went above and beyond the day of to make sure our needs were met and exceeded. The venue was set up perfectly, and our vision came to life!
We had family attend from Florida, and it was their first time trying cheese curds and Italian beef! They were blown away by the food, and went up for seconds and thirds. One of our guests shared that she usually doesn’t order a drink more than once, but the Basil Vodka Lemonade was a hit and she went back to the bar for another glass!
The staff were incredible, Margaret checked on us frequently and Jack was super attentive. Sergio is a brilliant chef, and graciously accommodated our request for two individual veggie burgers on top of our four main platters for 60 people!
We are so grateful to the team at FUEL and Creme for their 5-star service. Other venues should look to them as a model for fantastic customer service and hospitality. Thank you for making our special day perfect!
A unique dining & drinking spot with multiple buildings, in/outside dining & drinking, I believe it was once a gas station. Good beer & drink selection. Food truck menu looks good. Outside seating with fire pits and lamps, heated indoor tent. Accessible rest area, parking across the street. Very friendly staff, comfortable place to hang out.
It's not officially open, it wasn't even their "soft" opening. It was like a why not. They only had beer and three wines, but the bartender said they will have a full bar when it actually opens. I did try the ice cream at creme though and it was good. They do have some dairy free options and the pricing is very reasonable. The patio is super cute. This place really looks like it would be in Elmhurst and not Villa Park.
