A fuel cell, comprising an electrode membrane structure having a solid electrolyte membrane (1) formed of a high polymer material, a fuel electrode (2) stacked on its both sides, and an air electrode (3). The fuel electrode (2) comprises an anode catalyst layer (4) and a fuel pole collector (6). The air electrode (3) comprises a cathode catalyst layer (5) and an air pole collector (7). A fuel tank (11) is formed at the rear of the fuel pole collector (6) and between a casing (10a) and a fuel holding membrane (8). To uniformize a liquid fuel supplied to the fuel electrode (2), the inside of the fuel tank (11) is partitioned into a plurality of parts through partition walls. The liquid fuel (methanol) in the fuel tank (11) is absorbed and held by the fuel holding membrane (8), dispersed through the fuel holding membrane (8), and reaches each part of the fuel electrode (2).
