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.

This is my favorite Italian Gnocchi place. I'm a big fan. Bring your own fork/spoon. They charge $0.30 for a fork, however they offer free chopsticks. Either pay with cash or Canadian Debit. Something to note is Canadian Debit means any card with an Interac logo on it. CREDIT CARDS are NOT Accepted.American debit cards or prepaid cash cards are often AMEX, Visa or Mastercard ONLY & are not acceptable here. There is an ATM available right nextdoors or a quick 5min walk to the nearest Scotia Bank Branch. I always get extra cheese with extra extra extra spice

Knew about this place from its hype online but actually just stumbled past it unintentionally as it's located near lots of other popular eats! Simply cheap & tasty. It is a bit plain & the sauce kind of reminds me of Chef Boyardee, but it was delicious nonetheless. After all it's only 6$ (cheese is 1$ extra).

Great gnocchi for a great price! Low effort for customer as there are very limited choices, few options between cheese, chili flakes & that's it. We'll located & seating available nearby outdoors

It's $5 & a good size portion so you can't complain much but the gnocchi is low quality & the sauce is pretty bland. With how many other amazing food options there are in the neighborhood it's not really worth the often massive line unless you're trying to save a few $

Cool concept. For the price point, it's good value with generous portion & quick, friendly service. That said, there's not much selection & I'm not sure it's worth the hype - it's good, but not amazing. The spicy is quite spicy, go no spice or low spice if you don't want a kick. Note, they only accept Canadian debit cards & cash. Only has a to-go window, no seating.

Cheap, tasty, fillings hmm what else I can say? This place is located next to Fairmount bagel, so after I got my bagels I went & got $5 gnocchi with cheese. It came on chinese take out boxes with wooden chopsticks. There's an extra $ if you'd like the fork. Taxes included on the price.

Selon moi, les gnocchis pourraient être meilleurs (trop cuit & sauce vraiment acide) mais pour le petit prix, je fais un compromis.
