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.

Quick & delicious! When a place does only one thing, they better do it well. Drogheria's gnocchi is petite & with just the right amount of sauce. I recommend getting it with extra cheese & spice. (It's a generous spice. Since it's red pepper flakes added on top, you can ask them to hold back a little bit.) Chopsticks are free. Forks are available for a slight cost. Find a nearby bench & enjoy!

Je n'ai pas trop aimée. En effet, ils étaient pas très bien cuit & tout mou. Ça collaient beaucoup au palais & dans les dents. Pas pratique quand nous avons un appareil dentaire. Il y avait un peu trop de sauce. Toutefois le fromage était bon. & la queue était plutôt longue. Le service était rapide. Nous devons payer pour les fourchettes sinon c'est baguette ou rien. Il n'y a pas non plus de breuvages.

Absolutely delicious! Huge portion of really tasty gnocchi. They don't accept international cards so make sure you have cash if you're not local.

Yummy food at a reasonable price. The portion in that small-looking takeout makes you full for a while. The sauce & parmesan cheese are reminiscent of my grandma & my mother back in the day. There is no place to dine in & also if you have only a credit card you are going to be in trouble. It all depends on you how much love this food or the nostalgia around it.
