Drogheria Fine's mission is to provide the food service industry innovative products and ingredients and to contribute to Quebec gastronomic and culinary growth.
Drogheria Fine is known for its simple, affordable gnocchi served from a street window with a tomato-based sauce that can be topped with cheese and chili flakes. The value is repeatedly praised, with generous portions and low prices, though indoor seating is not available and payments are cash or Canadian debit only. Reviews highlight a comforting, pillowy texture and a sauce that ranges from rich and flavorful to a bit sour or generic depending on the batch. The vibe is described as quick, casual, and charming, with fast service and friendly staff, making it a popular go to on a cold day. For many, it remains a must visit in Montreal's Mile End, famous for a takeout box that delivers a satisfying, inexpensive gnocchi experience.
Stopped in on a food tour of Montreal. The sauce was tasty. The gnocchi was a bit heavy but paired with the sauce. If you are in the need of a quick hearty lunch it's a good option.
Adorable takeout counter with friendly owners, offering $5 gnocchi & they also have homemade sauce that you can buy. Today they had spinach gnocchi! Ill def be back !! 5 Stars !

Waited in line for almost an hour. But it was worth it because that first bite made me squirt a lil! Great price too! Gnocchi was pillowy & the sauce was flavourful.
The gnocchi was def some of the best I've had outside of italy!! Would def reccomend if you're a gnocchi fan. Is just a "stand", but is in a cool part of town & benches around.
I bought gnocchi with cheese & hot pepper flakes & I loved it, the tomato sauce is delicious. Just be careful & let them cool a little, because they are really hot.
Just found this little window restaurant. So happy we did. All they sell is gnocchis & sauce served correct. Best I've ever had & the best little hearty food on a chilly day A+ big luv
Portion is huge & very tasty for the price. The cost cutting measures are very clear though. 5 cents for utensils other than chopsticks, gnocchi is just round balls, etc. No complaints though & the service is good. Would highly recommend spending the extra money on chili flakes.
Very delicious & affordable gnocchi. Add an additional 1$ for extra cheese on gnocchi seems a bit too much. But the tomato sauce had the right balance of acidity to it & the gnocchi were perfectly cooked.
I was a little disappointed when my mom & I got out of our Uber to learn that this was just a take away window. Boy, that disappointment disappeared quick! It's no wonder there was a line down the block for this place. Mom had never had gnocchi before & I dont think she'll ever forget trying it for the first time. DELICIOUS!!! We ate from our take-out containers & window shopped in this eclectic part of town. I've had all kinds of gnocchi before & this was by far the best!! My mouth is watering as I write this. Seriously. Sauce comes in regular marinara or spicy, & is topped with delicious cheese. I cant wait to visit Montreal again & will definitely be coming back here!!
Yummy gnochi! My rec is no spice, extra cheese. The red pepper flakes don't complement the gnocchi well, in my opinion. Hot sauce...sure. Dusty pepper, pass.

Iconic spot for cheap eats. You're near guaranteed to end the day with a heartburn session post-gnocchi, but for $5 it's impossible to beat. Be aware of long lines at peak hours, otherwise the service is great.
This was the 2nd stop on our food tour & OMG what amazing "street gnocchi". I had no idea I needed this in my life but I totally do. I had read about it before I got there & couldn't figure out the appeal but I was so wrong. It's little fluffy pillows of goodness in an amazing sauce severed in a Chinese takeout box eaten with chopsticks standing on the sidewalk & it is pefection!!!
Les gnocchis sont servis en bonne quantité pour le prix: n'hésitez pas à essayer surtout par une journée froide. Ajoutez épices & fromage & prenez un pot de sauce pour emporter!
