Review from Peter T.

Currently cheaper than petro- diesel and doing the right thing by the environment to boot! What could be better? I love the fact that you pump first then pay, and the *ding* hoses are the icing on the cake.
If you have a diesel, why would you fill up anywhere else??? -

Things are going better at the register lately -- no waiting. Good. Also note that winter hours mean closing at 6pm now, and not 7pm as stated.

Love this quaint little gem of a gas station. Local 100% recycled B100 is a rare commodity and that being said, the price is now on par or cheaper than regular ole diesel #2. Places like this need to survive and thrive, we need more of them!
Aaaand they have the hippest hippy snack section that's o so yummy for the granola hemp-loving dready in you LOL -

Stopped by here yesterday for the first time. As the friends who rode along with me said, this is pretty much the cutest gas station EVER!
And well, as someone who has frequented a number of bay area biodiesel pit stops over the past four years (from Santa Cruz to Berkeley with some San Jose in between), I have to say it's pretty much the nicest one I've been to. Prices are right, hours are decent, they take credit cards, have a buncha nice snacks & best of all - are in San Francisco!
Their website has pretty much all the information you could think to ask, but they are -really- sweet and friendly people running the place.
So head on over and fill 'er up! -

Dogpatch Biofuel is the BOMB. Robin and Michelle have gone through an unbelievable amount of bureaucracy to open Dogpatch and keep it up and running.
Not only is the fueling experience pleasant here (have a nice chat with Marcie or one of the other attendants while you sip a great cane sugar cola), the fuel is clean and safe for your diesel vehicle.
BioD is hassle to find in LA, and I think there's only one option in San Diego. Being green in San Francisco is so much easier with good options in San Mateo, Berkeley, Sebastapol (I think) and of course Dogpatch in San Francisco.
As one of the other reviewers pointed out.. if you're driving a diesel vehicle in San Francisco, you're missing out if you don't fuel at Dogpatch. -

Having fueled up from San Diego to British Columbia, I can confidently say this is The Best Place Ever to get your biodiesel.
Extra bonuses (as others have mentioned): B100, local/recycled sources, little store, and actual working shutoff pump! Freeway convenient and super-friendly folks are just icing on the cake. And no membership fee, just the usual, state-mandated paperwork (which they save online so you only ever have to do it once, even if you only pass through town occasionally).
I think the only thing I could possibly ask for is 24/7 access via a credit card (having just gone through SoCal and been near bio often at odd hours). But lucky for me, I'm based in the Bay Area so the hours are plenty convenient.
Don't hesitate to check them out, either as your new regular fuel source or if you're just in passing through. -

As was said before, what a cute fueling station! I I waited patiently for them to open (I'd walk my dog by all the time).
Prices are good, the ladies that run it are very nice and it's right around the corner from me so filling my Jeep up with Bio is a snap.
I'm very happy to have Dogpatch Biofuels in my neighborhood! -

What an incredible improvement from the janky, overpriced, often not working SF Petroleum card place on Indiana.
This place is everything a biodiesel station should be--clean, green, friendly, outgoing---and handy! They remembered my name my second time back, how awesome is that?
I'm happy to pay a premium over petro diesel to support a home grown, locally produced outfit like this. -

When I pull up to clean, convenient easy-to-use Dogpatch Biofuels, I always think back to the bad old days: slogging through knee-deep mud with jerry-cans, a power converter and a battery in Pacifica. Or the pump that would be broken for three weeks at a time at SF Petroleum. And I get a little misty. But then I turn my wipers on and smile because I'm at Dogpatch. And the pump always works. And Michelle's always there and she rules. And it's convenient. Now open on Fridays! I can't say enough good things about Dogpatch or the people who run it. Go there. Support them. You'll be glad you did.

Great place, great staff, and so so so good to see nonpetro fuel available.
Only wish they were open longer into the evening and closer to my commute route. Hate to have to make a special trip by I come home too late to catch them open.
