This has the best coffee we have found across Canada! We've been on a long trip & all the major stopoffs across the country! Here we have superfast service, great coffee & even skinny milk!
We are very grateful for the three days we have spent in the wonderful coffee we have consumed!
We bought at least 2 cups per day!
Awesome!Voir plus

Far Cry from Its Heyday
The third-wave coffee is still good-though overpriced-but sadly, the welcoming & vibrant atmosphere that once defined this place is gone. On my last visit, the café was nearly empty, & the vibe felt cold & uninviting.
What stood out most was the supercilious attitude of the two baristas (both seemingly unilingual anglophones). They seemed more interested in chatting with each other than serving customers. The sense of hospitality has clearly faded.
There are plenty of better cafés in the city where making an espresso isn't treated like a lifestyle performance. This is a place I'll gladly avoid in the future.
Goodbye, Humble Lion-you're not so humble anymore.
Loin de sa belle époque
Le café « third wave » est toujours bon (mais cher), cependant l'ambiance chaleureuse & accueillante qui faisait le charme de l'endroit a complètement disparu. Le lieu était presque vide lors de ma dernière visite, & l'atmosphère froide & distante.
Ce qui m'a le plus marqué, c'est l'attitude hautaine des deux baristas (visiblement unilingues anglophones), plus occupées à discuter entre elles qu'à servir les clients. L'accueil, autrefois agréable, n'est plus au rendez-vous.
Il existe de bien meilleurs cafés à Montréal, où faire un espresso n'est pas une déclaration de style de vie. Pour ma part, je n'y remettrai pas les pieds.
Adieu Humble Lion, tu n'as plus rien d'humble.Voir plus

Small, skinny cafe. Some seating but for the most part it's very cramped & difficult to work from. The coffee is good though so recommend to take to go.Voir plus

Terrible terrible wifi connection. It's been consistently terrible for the past 8 years since I arrived. I come back for the cup of coffee & the vibe, but don't plan to work here!Voir plus

The perfect place to grab a cup of coffee. If you're considering studying here, I'd recommend arriving early since the space is quite small. There's something about the coffee & the atmosphere that makes me want to study-it feels like I'm in a movie when I work there. Their pastries are also really good.Voir plus

Lieu très beau. Rien d'exceptionnel au niveau des gâteaux, mais on peut y passer un bon moment. Service correct.Voir plus

Top coffee - even espresso allongé which is not easy to find (Americano is usually not the same) & delicious fresh scones & muffins & more. Cozy atmosphere good internet, friendly staff & the best sort of university vibe.Voir plus

tried the cortado a few times. the quality really varies & most of the time it is quite unsatisfying. common problems: 1. the milk was often steamed way too hot. 2. a few times the shot was very sour & there was visibly not enough crema. I think the baristas need to be trained more before they pour shots to customers.Voir plus

Firstly, I hate leaving reviews but I left this in hopes the owner sees it & addresses these concerns. I am having very inconsistent coffee & service at HL on Sherbrooke. When ordering an Americano with milk, I do not want the milk added to the water (!?!). This watery milk is then set aside for a few mins while they make the espresso to pour into said watery milk. Why would you do this? The cold milk cools off the hot water so the Americano becomes lukewarm. When the staff is asked not to do this/remake a lukewarm Americano, I am met with eye rolls, "knowing" looks to the other staff, snickers, & shrugs. I am always kind & respectful. I always tip. As a regular, I do not appreciate being treated like this. This has started happening regularly & this week alone, it has happened 4x. I am (was) a daily regular there; if we include the HL on McGill college, I am a daily 1-2x regular. Recently, I've taken to hiking up the hill to Toi & Moi in the Science building to get a good Americano. I regret having to do this. I used to love the coffee here. Saying that, the cheese cumin scones are the best I've ever had anywhere & the owner is lovely with the cutest dog. I wish he'd get the staff & Americano situation sorted out. I'll keep coming to buy scones until then but no coffee for me.Voir plus
