Other comments highlight a warm mood and a humble vibe that fits the name, with notes of starting the day well thanks to good coffee. Overall, the reviews portray Café Humble Lion as a dependable spot for a solid cup and pastry, with positive energy and a few cautions about menu options and consistency in drink preparation.
J'adore ce café! Ils font vraiment des cafés délicieux qu'il s'agisse de latte chaud ou froid. Aujourd'hui, j'ai essayé le scone chocolat noir & bleuets 🫐 tout était délicieux! Merci!!
Whenever i go into the office downtown I'm looking forward to stopping at the humble lion. Good coffee, nice staff & great vibes every time over the years
Delicious latte & moderately sweet desserts but unfortunately the barista was not friendly. I will not go back there because of bad service. Btw the location of the coffee shop is good & the prices are reasonable. P.S.: I have no idea who the comment below is talking about. I've also been accused of something lol. Wow. Good luck, guys & have a good day!
This cute cafe in the heart of downtown Montreal has comfortable seating & a lovely window view to take your time to enjoy your coffee & snacks. The staff were super nice & efficient. There is a coffee menu with varied options. The cortado was excellent & velvety. I'm super curious about the maple latte so I'll be back for sure. Although I did some patrons working at the tables, the space is small & there were no visible outlets so it's really a place designed for sitting for 1 or 2 & enjoying the experience.

Today was the first time I visited this location. I came in with 10 adult students from all around the world to show them an example of a Montreal café. I indicated right away that we would be slow in ordering because I had to explain the menu options to the students. The young man at the cash was very rude. I attempted to ignore his attitude & thanked him for his patience & he responded, "I'm not patient." I asked him if he was trying to pick a fight because I was shocked by his behaviour. He said no, but continued to be short with me. The barista, on the other hand, was kind & the coffee was good. The place was almost empty when we arrived so I don't know what the problem was with our presence. Oh well.
