Good people, good plates, and plenty of neighborhood love
Dad’s Kitchen in Fair Oaks is the original home of the Dad’s Burger and a gathering place for American-style quality comfort food. We’ve been the local go-to for cold beer, warm hospitality, and live music on the patio for years—and we’re just getting started.
Neighborhood roots
Nestled near Phoenix Park in Fair Oaks, Dad’s is where regulars, first-timers, and visiting friends all feel at home. We’re big on community, from supporting local musicians to remembering your favorite order.
With both indoor booths and a breezy patio, it’s the perfect stop after strolling the park trails or catching weekend happenings nearby.
Comfort built for everyone
Our menu is packed with the dishes people crave—legendary burgers, crispy fish and chips, shareable wings, and vegetarian favorites like our scratch-made veggie patty. Pair it all with California craft beer, wines, or a signature Bloody Mary and you’re set.
Whether you’re here for brunch, happy hour, trivia night, or live tunes, Dad’s Kitchen keeps the experience relaxed and the plates full.

Live & local
From acoustic sets to patio parties, supporting local musicians and makers is part of our DNA.
Community spirit
We’re proud to be a Fair Oaks staple and collaborate with our Phoenix Park neighbors on events, fundraisers, and more.
