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.

They could at least have an atm that is accessible, I literally traveled there for this stupid dish & never got it because no ATM nearby. I will not even bother to go into that part of the city again it's inconvenient & dirty.

Extrêmement simple mais bon. Pour $5, ça vaut le coût. Attention, il n'y a pas de salles, ils vendent sur la rue. Aussi si vous n'avez pas Interac & que vous êtes étrangers, il faut payer en liquide.

Cute hole in the wall place! Came here for the $5 Gnocci. Add 1.50 & you get chili flakes & Parmesan cheese.

It's the best thing I've eaten since my Grade 4 teacher's rigatoni sauce. I remember eating it as a kid, & even after all these years I still crave it & I'm glad I found this on my trip to Montreal cause it was nostalgic lol

They take cash or Canadian debit only.

I've been there a few times, but the last two visits, the gnocchis were much less good. Price remains great, but the quality is simply not what it used to be.
