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.

Saw this place on TikTok so grabbed some lunch in my car when I was in the area, oh my god. For $5?! How can you go wrong. It was so good. I practically inhaled it. If I didn't have a work meeting to be at I would've got another 😂

Cheap fast & super delicious. What more can you ask for. Usually a line so be patient. You can skip to the front of the line if you are buying a jar of sauce & not getting any gnocchi. Can ask for extra cheese or spicy.

Just potato dough balls in a very basic tomato sauce... stumbled onto this place thinking the line of people was for bagels... gave it a try & no big deal other than it is cheap... ate a few bites... then went to Wilenky for a real meal & dessert at theItalian place... plus I can eat out of the rain...

Honestly the 2 girls that were there deserve some encouragement. It has a long line up & they are working hard to serve the people. I don't know if they are married or have bfs but they will make a man real happy one day.

Stopped by on a food tour. Didn't know street gnocchi was a thing & now I'm sad it's not a thing near where I live. The lines were long but moved quickly. Would absolutely stop by when I'm in town & I'd bring solid Tupperware to make the trip home with!
