Very quick & easy takeout spot. I love that the prices have not changed in years. Gnocchi are good for the price.

For $5-7 dollars, hard to find anything like this nowadays. Good portion, gnocchi is alright but flavor wise, it's terrible. The sauce is super acidic & barely tastes like tomato sauce.

Was a worth trying once but not again.

You can barely leave the house without spending $5, so let's be honest, this is a good deal for a good amount of gnocchi.

The gnocchi themselves are good, but my issue with the tomato sauce. It does not taste right, there is just something off about it.

I would still recommend to stop by & try it - it is a quintessential Montreal experience.

The entire menu is gnocchi. Ask for cheese & spice. That's all of your choices. You deserve nothing more.

Gnocchi's are what they do. With or without cheese, spicy or regular tomato sauce.
The concept is simple & it works. Found the gnocchi a bit tough but still tasty & the sauce good. So for 5-6$ roughly its an amazing deal & comforting. But good luck finding a parking & a place to sit outside to eat.

Excellent. The pasta is very good, & it's an unbeatable value for 6.50$. I recommend the gnocchi with cheese & spicy.

Drogheria is such a Montreal classic. You really can't beat $5 gnocchi for that level of quality, simple, delicious, & always satisfying. Perfect takeout to enjoy on a bench in Mile End while soaking up the nice weather. A go-to spot every time!
