Café Humble Lion (Sherbrooke)

Visited today and come to this location often with coworkers. Always efficient and delicious tasting drinks. All the baristas here are nice , but the one who served us today was in particular very friendly and nice. Just adds a good vibe to the service . This place still knows what customer service is suppose to be like. I love coming here and kudos to the wonder staff and baristas here. To the barista today around 315pm, thank you for the great service !

ASTOUNDINGLY GOOD COFFEE, well above average carrot cake that is moist and not too sugary, amazing vibe with good music and warm atmosphere, kind staff

Ordered a medium iced matcha and it unfortunately just tasted of milk, and it was almost white in colour. Also ordered a scone, which was actually very good! The service was also good, just avoid the matcha.

I went in the morning and got a small matcha with white chocolate syrup and it was so good, honestly one of the best matchas I’ve had. I went back later in the day for a large one but that time it tasted completely different, basically like milk with just a tiny hint of matcha. I don’t know if it’s because they use the same amount of matcha for all sizes or something, but the ratio felt super off. I really hope it was just a one-time thing because the small one was incredible and I’d love to go back without worrying it’ll taste like milk again.

edit: even with an extra matcha shot and syrup, the large format still tastes like straight up milk

Friendly baristas but oh my their matcha latte was one of the worsts I've ever tried. They claim using tea from Camellia Sinensis which is one of my favorite brands but all I could taste was milk. Maybe work on your tea/milk ratio? Plus the price was ridiculously expensive for the size of the drinks.

I love the drinks here, especially the seasonal ones! The chai is my favourite :) scones and cookies are also pretty solid!

The staff is super nice and drinks are made fairly quickly. The only cons are the lack of seating (it’s hard to find a table) and how loud it can get during the day, so it’s not an ideal work/study spot. Still, great to catch up with friends if you’re in the downtown area!

I went here last week and was so disappointed. I ordered a small iced matcha with oat milk and maple syrup and it was one of the smallest cups I've seen. I paid $7. The milk was not frothed, and they didn't even bother to fill the tiny cup to the top. Not only that, but the syrup could not have been real maple syrup, it must have been a simple syrup or corn syrup. So disappointed and I won't be going back here, it's a rip off.

Come for the coffee stay for the scones! Don’t miss this gem. As good as it was 10 years ago!

Great service, very friendly staff! And the dirty chai was amazing!

Stepped into this cozy place on a drizzly day. Great cappuccino. Aroma. Baristas know their stuff. Stay. And muse.

Coffee is good, but the servers' attitude is just not for me.

Terrible experience. The barista was rude. First the attitude when telling me to go to the cashier where I’ll be served (the tone super rude). We asked for the wifi to be fixed, and when she was asked again, her response was “if it’s not working I can’t do anything for you, I have a lineup here” and continued making coffee.

I wouldn’t be surprised this coming out of racism. Definitely not recommended and surely not coming back.

This has the best coffee we have found across Canada! We’ve been on a long trip and all the major stopoffs across the country! Here we have superfast service, great coffee and 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!

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

Don't get the matcha: it's fishy and clumpy and costs almost $8 for the smallest size
