With so many businesses shut down due to COvid lockdown, I was so happy to see my favourite little Italian coffee shop has remained open. Very clean, efficient. personable and professional… just like a bar in Italy . It’s a little piece of Italy before heading to work .

A modest,small place - good espresso but dosing was a little stingy (ungenerous) which reflected in a lack of richness.

Fantastic place to get a cup of beans & the food is great! Being greeted by friendly people & great coffee is a great way to start any day in my book.

Insanely good coffee and delicious high quality food offering.

This is an insanely densely caffeinated corner of Melbourne (there are literally 7 coffee shops within view of this place), however, I'd argue that Sociale is the best of the lot. Take the quality of the coffee and add the super friendly staff, and you've got yourself your new favourite coffee shop.

Good little place to get quick coffee. Nice chat with the sassy (in a good way) owner. Always appreciate the coffee and jokes in the morning before I start my day.

This place is very different and well organized. The food is amazing. The owner is very sweet… and fun also very knowledgeable. The cost is fair for everything and the atmosphere is good.

Just a hop, skip and jump from the Meriton Suites, King St, this cozy den of deliciousness will not do you wrong! We got the meatball and melty provolone panini and the pulled pork panini. Crispy, hot bread and juicy insides. We didn't get any beverages but there was a free lemon water station. We spied the other customers having mouth-watering looking coffees. A must try for a sit-down chat, or a quick bite!

Found this via Google maps and having read several reviews decided to try. Amazing coffee and great breakfast roll.

Fab coffee here! Strong just how I like it

Lloyd is a fantastic Barista, his food it top of the range. Cool, small location, tucked away in a back alley. Love it!! And most of all, the coffee is awesome

Lloyd is fabulous and so is the coffee! The BBQ pulled pork panini is my favourite

Nice service with a smile 😊. The coffee is even better. A must visit place for a coffee.

Great coffee and friendly service, don’t miss the meatball sub!

Great little place to sit and eat in or takeaway. Fast friendly service Great coffeee!!!

Outstanding coffee and service. I've been to many cafes in the city but this one is absolutely amazing 👏

This quaint little espresso spot is a true hidden gem, the service is great the food delicious and the coffee hits the spot every time. The meatball sub has legendary status in these parts. If you want a quiet spot to sit have a drink and a bite to eat, Sociale is well worth the visit.

The place to come for espresso lovers, done very well and the Italian style. Small range of lunch options available all day with the Piadina the recommendation to try (it's made by the store, not bought in!). Quick service and opened early in the morning.

Just a lovely spot with the best magic in the city. Charming Italian host, sparkling water free with every coffee, superb pastries and other treats, it’s like a mini taste of Rome right here on Little Collins.

By far the best coffee in the Melbourne CBD. The service is incredible and their selection of sweet and savory treats is also to die for.

Staff are super friendly and accommodating and the food and drinks are delicious and high quality - highly recommend
