Review Summary

Drogheria Fine is widely celebrated as a quintessential Montreal staple, offering a unique and authentic street food experience centered on fresh, pillowy gnocchi served with a signature tomato sauce. While opinions on the sauce's flavor profile vary, with some diners finding it incredibly comforting and others noting it as overly acidic or simple, the overall consensus highlights the exceptional value and generous portion sizes for the price. The minimalist, quick-service takeout window frequently draws lines, yet the efficient staff and fast turnover make it a convenient stop for locals and tourists alike. Visitors should be prepared for a cash or Canadian debit-only policy and limited seating options, though the cozy neighborhood vibe and proximity to other local gems make it a highly recommended experience for those seeking a hearty, affordable, and warm bite.

Simple, bonne sauce tomate onctueuse, pas chère. Vaut la peine

Super expérience dans les rues de Montréal ! Un plat simple & généreux à un prix imbattable (5$). Les ingrédients sont qualitatifs.

Tried the gnocchi for the first time. I've wanted to try for years but live far away. Got my fix & maybe I'm missing something but sorry can't say anything special about what I tried. The sauce was weird because I was expecting to be blown away & it was strange. Sauce was bland. Gnocchi was nice & plump & filled the container but that sauce just took your taste buds away from the gnocchi. Used to live in the McGill ghetto & hung out around the Main for decades so I know the area well. Changed a lot & not for the good but still a nice place.

Always great for a quick affordable bite on a Sunday. Went today & the owners ( I think as they seem to be always there ) are always nice & she always has with a sweet smile 💕

Always hits the spot. A must try at this Montréal landmark 🇮🇹

Il faut faire un détour par ici ! Dans cet endroit les gnocchis sont à 5$ seulement. Le plat est généreux avec une bonne portion & de la sauce a en faire déborder le contenant. Rajoutez-y du fromage pour 1$ en plus.
Globalement, l'ensemble est bon, mais il manque le côté croustillant des gnocchis revenus à la poêle.

Don't let the long line deter you! The line actually moves very quickly. The portions are great for the price. One order is enough to share if you want to try other foods around the neighborhood. My husband & I came here several years ago & we knew we had to come back when visiting Montreal again. Definitely a nicer experience when the weather is good. Overall a great value & nice quick warm treat.

It is a mile end classic. The famous gnocchi shack to try in Montréal. Don't expect an brilliant gnocchi but it is good. Go for spicy add cheese. Sometimes the line is long but it is worth it as the street is lovely & makes the whole mile end experience worth it.
