Review Summary

Drogheria Fine is a beloved Montreal destination known for serving simple, affordable, and comforting gnocchi directly from a takeout window. While the menu is limited to gnocchi with tomato sauce, with options to add cheese or chili flakes, the concept is widely celebrated for its efficiency and value. Many patrons appreciate the pillowy texture of the pasta and the rich, homemade quality of the sauce, often describing it as a perfect snack for a cold day. Although opinions on the flavor profile vary, with some noting a preference for a more traditional marinara, most visitors agree that the experience is a quintessential part of the Mile End neighborhood. Be prepared for potential lineups, as the spot is popular, and ensure you have cash or a Canadian debit card on hand since they do not accept credit cards.

It's my second time in Montreal & I knew I had to be back & get the gnocchi again. 10/10 did not disappoint, still as good as the first time O tried it

Portion size is also good for what it's worth

What a gem. Ran into this place with a bunch of folks outside on our way to finding Fairmount bagel (which also has awesome bagels).

We were wondering what everyone was eating, & saw that this spot was serving 1 item - to go gnocchi. 6 bucks. Can get it with cheese & red pepper for some spice.

Honestly shockingly good. Got some of the best sorbet/gelato next door to it too. What an experience!

Oh, one downside - cash only establishment.

Qualité-prix dans sa meilleure forme. Bonne chance pour le stationnement : une bonne petite marche pour creuser l'appétit ou pour faire descendre le tout. Recommandé sans aucun doute, & proche de plusieurs autres merveilles.

The gnocchi were soft & comforting, but taste-wise nothing really stood out to me. The sauce was okay, simple & homemade style, but not something I'd personally crave again. It's one of those'nice to try once' Montreal spots more for the experience & local hype than for amazing flavor.

I do understand why people like it though - it's cheap ( 5 dollars ) quick, filling, & feels very local & authentic. The vibe around the place is probably stronger than the actual food itself because it is between kem cona & fairmount bagel! 🥯

Simple, authentic, & full of flavor 🍝
Drogheria Fine is one of Montreal's must-try hidden gems. Their famous gnocchi with tomato sauce is fresh, hot, comforting, & surprisingly affordable. Tiny spot, big flavor 🇮🇹❤?
