Coffee, Mingle and Make New Friends in Melbourne CBD ☕👋

Looking to meet some new people in Melbourne without the pressure of a loud bar or a formal networking event?
Come join us for a super relaxed afternoon of coffee, friendly casual conversations and new connections in the heart of Melbourne CBD.

Meeting Point:

📅 Saturday, 10 October 2026
🕜 1:30 PM
📍 Howey Place, outside The Alley Edition café
20 Howey Pl, Melbourne VIC 3000

We’ll gather just outside The Alley Edition café in the fully covered Howey Place laneway, so you won’t have to worry too much about Melbourne’s unpredictable rain or wind.

Grab yourself a takeaway coffee and enjoy some easy conversations in a relaxed, sheltered setting — whatever the weather decides to do!

Coming alone? Shy or introverted? You’re very welcome. 😊

If this is your first Meetup, you’re coming on your own, or you’re naturally a little shy or introverted, please don’t let that stop you from joining.

A lot of people at social events arrive by themselves and may be feeling exactly the same way.

When you arrive, feel free to come straight over and say hi to me (my name is Liem and I'm the host). I’ll be there to welcome everyone, introduce people to each other and help get conversations started, so you won’t be left standing around wondering who to talk to.

There’s no pressure to be super outgoing. You don’t need to impress anyone or be great at small talk — just come along, be yourself and meet some friendly people.

What to expect

We’ll keep things casual and easygoing. Depending on how many people attend, we may naturally break into smaller groups so everyone has a better chance to talk, hear each other and actually get to know a few people.

You’re welcome to move between conversations, meet different people and stay for as long as you like.

Whether you’re new to Melbourne, looking to expand your social circle, wanting to meet people outside your usual routine, or simply feel like having a coffee and a chat, you’re very welcome to join us.

No formal activities.
No awkward networking.
No pressure.
Just coffee (and matcha latte), conversations and a chance to make some new friends in Melbourne. ☕🌿

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Liem
