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.
Been here a couple times & it's so delicious. I feel it is the perfect amount of food, not making you too full or leaving you hungry. I went around 3pm on a Sunday & it was BUSY, we waited in line for about 20 minutes. It was totally worth it though, the gnocchi was hot, delicious, & the staff were lovely. If you want a cheap meal or you're up to try something new, the gnocchi is delicious!
Amazing deal only $5. Great portion, you can smell the delicious sauce through out the street. Fair mount bagels is right next door making it a great area to stop for food.
Best, fastest & cheapest gnocchi I've ever had, I hasn't even taken my card out to order & I had the gnocchi in my hand already, portions is rly good & it's so tasty
The only good thing about it was the cheap price - $5. We had the spicy one, & it was honestly pretty bad, putting just chilly flakes, is not enough to make a tasty spicy sauce.
I wanted to love it so much!!!...but the sauce smelled better then it tasted...I mean it's ok but definitely overrated. Food is cheap & it's at a good price but the sauce is too liquid for me. I prefer my sauce thicker. & also, the cheese is super disappointing...I was expecting fresh mozzarella or fresh cheese on top but it was very ordinary parmesan. & not the best kind either... Glad I've tried it but not going back...
Meilleurs gnocchis servis dans une belle petite boîte pour manger bien assis sur le trottoir. À 5,00$ cela fait un repas tellement savoureux! Vous avez même l'option d'acheter des litres de gnocchis dans leur sauce pour réchauffer à la maison! Un MUST à découvrir sur la rue Fairmount!

Sauce légendaire en vente en pots. Il est possible d'y trouver un carton de gnocchis avec leur célèbre sauce pour 5$. Nul besoin de dire qu'une visite s'impose lorsque nous sommes dans le quartier. À noter qu'il n'y a aucune place assise, il s'agit d'un comptoir. Le service y est rapide.
