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 a small, cash or debit only takeout counter with no indoor seating that serves gnocchi in a windowed, street-food style setting, often enjoyed with the option of cheese or spicy toppings and a rich tomato sauce; reviews describe the gnocchi as pillowy and comforting and the portions generous for the price, while the sauce can range from deeply flavorful to overly sour or bland depending on the batch, with some gnocchi textures being chewy or overcooked. The experience is quick, casual, and distinctly neighborhood, aided by friendly staff and a bustling takeout line that moves, and the packaging— a simple to-go box with optional jar sauce to take home—adds to the charm. Many praise the affordability and the nostalgia of a place that started as a sauce shop before the gnocchi became iconic, while a few note that the sauce is not always to their taste and some batches feel more like a can than homemade. Overall, it’s considered a must-try for gnocchi lovers seeking a hard-to-beat value and a quintessential Montréal moment, even if every visit doesn’t hit the same high note.
J'ai décidé d'y faire un arrêt puisque j'étais dans le coin. Vue le hype sur tik tok. Bon service. Cependant, les gnocchi étaient pâteux, & la sauce très acide. Je n'y retournerai pas. Puisque j'ai eu de la difficulté à digérer le tout. #relux. De plus, isl n'ont pas ouvert à l'heur indiqué sur Google.

Hier, j'ai eu une petite révélation culinaire au kiosque Drogheria Fine, un petit stand à gnocchis. Pour seulement 5$, j'ai dégusté ce qui pourrait bien être les gnocchis les plus délicieux que j'ai jamais mangés. La texture était juste parfaite, ni trop ferme, ni trop moelleuse, & chaque bouchée était un pur moment de bonheur. Ce lieu sans chichis, directement sur le trottoir, prouve qu'on n'a pas besoin de fioritures pour savourer de la bonne cuisine. Pour tous ceux qui cherchent un repas délicieux, rapide & à bon prix, faites un arrêt chez Drogheria Fine. C'est une petite pause magique dans le quotidien, promis !
My favourite gnocchi place in Canada!!!! I love it's flavours, made fresh, & tasty! I can have it for lunch & dinner for days with no complaints. I wish they open here in Toronto. MUST VISIT!!!
That saucy gnocchi is the real deal (just be careful not to add too many chilli fakes. I was fighting the most brutal battles on the toilets throughout the whole trip thanks to it)
The food is affordable & delicious . 11/10 recommend, this place will now be my go-to place for yummy eats . Gnocchis are so chewy & the sauce is amazing. I recommend you add extra cheese for 1$, it's worth it!
Pour combler un petit creux & pour le prix, c'est pas mal imbattable. 2 box avec extra fromage c'est 12$. Petit aménagement devant pour aller s'assoir. Ramène ton date la si t'as pas une cenne!
Si vous chercher à vous remplir l'estomac pour 5 dollars c'est le bon endroit pas de viande proposée pour ce prix mais les gnocchis sont très bon avec un surplus de fromage & Chili c'est parfait

Drogheria Fine is a unique "street gnocchi" spot where you order from a window & either eat outside or take your food to go. The concept is cool, the portions are generous, & the service is quick & friendly-all for under $10. It's easy to see why this is such a popular spot for visitors or anyone looking for a quick, affordable lunch. That said, while the value & experience are great, the gnocchi & sauce were just okay-nothing particularly special. The sauce reminded me of something slightly better than Chef Boyardee, so it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Still, for the price & speed, it's worth a stop. Just remember they only accept Canadian cash or debit!
