A fuel cell includes a cell structure, an oxidizing agent flow path, a fuel flow path, and an anode-side current collector. The cell structure includes a cathode, an anode, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the cathode and the anode. The oxidizing agent flow path is formed adjacent to the cathode and away from the solid electrolyte layer. The oxidizing agent flow path is a flow path for supplying a gas that contains an oxidizing agent to the cathode. The fuel flow path is formed adjacent to the anode and away from the solid electrolyte layer. The fuel flow path is a flow path for supplying a fuel gas that contains water vapor and a hydrocarbon to the anode. The anode-side current collector is disposed adjacent to the anode and away from the solid electrolyte layer. The anode-side current collector is in contact with the anode.
