What do you think? 🤔
Will you come join us?? 😅🙏💪
Read on, True Believers - and please, help us spread the DELICIOUS word?
EVERY FRIDAY - and only Fridays - from Friday October 30th and up to and including Friday November 27th - we are officially announcing our FRIDAY ITALIAN LUNCH SERVICE!
And that's - from 11:00 am to 2:30 pm!
And for 12 BUCKS?!?
HERE'S what's up, and officially on the 12 BUCK LIST:
CRISPY VEAL, CHICKEN, EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA, PROSCIUTTO & MOZZARELLA PANINI & FRIES, CACCIATORE PANINO PLATES! 😛😛
GNOCCHI FRIDAYS FOR 12 BUCKS, with 5 delicious offerings steady - and one weekly Feature Lunch Gnocchi.😛😛
What to expect from our 12 BUCK Lunches?
The same fantastic traditional cookery you've come to know us for - and a delicious and unbeatable lunch time value!
And what else is cooking, you ask?
There's other options - OF COURSE - but we've already got 12 GUARANTEED absolutely delicious Italian Lunch Classics on offer durning every Friday of our Pop Up Lunches Series - and maybe beyond!
Small Plates, Olives, Salads, fresh Mozzarella Dishes, snacky things.
A weekly BRUSCHETTA chalkboard!
And a fantastic selection of our signature Roman Style Pizzas too! 😛😛
Oh...and let's not forget a delicious selection of our signature DESSERTS, perfect espresso and coffee drinks, full Bar offerings. And more - because of course there's always more!
We need one week to prepare, Friends.
And then?
EVERY FRIDAY - and only Fridays - from Friday October 30th and up to and including Friday November 27th - we are officially launching our FRIDAY ITALIAN LUNCH SERVICE, from 11:00 am to 2:30 pm!
And. Another challenge and reward, Friends?
If we hit over 500 SHARES, COMMMENTS and Friend Tags (in comments) of this post and our news (because we have to fill our seats or this just fades away)?
If we can do that, then, we'll do this.
We'll hit a 50% DISCOUNT on our pizzas too - and no one can make this even in their own homes for that price.
(NOTE: I know, that many shares seems like a lofty goal but at those lunch plates and Gnocchi 12 BUCK prices, we're already probably losing our shirts HA! I believe in US, though - and I think we can do this!)
If we can help each other build a killer Lunch Vibe here that we can all Community meet for one Italian Lunch per week to break bread together in our Downtown Sudbury ?
That right there = PRICELESS ❤️ 🙏
Let's GOOOOOOOoooooOOOO!
Please also NOTE:
And this is an EDIT: We're encouraging reservations for anybody and everybody who can get on line and get this done ASAP-

We Won't be doing Lunch Takeout for now - at least not for a couple of weeks. We can revisit that soon enough, as soon as we know we can and can be good at that, too.
Final Word?
Thank you. We're still here after 25 years because of YOU - and we don't ever take that lightly. 💖💖💖
And this year, we want our doors open to you all even more often than ever, with even greater ideas and services and gatherings and dinners and lunches and things to keep us seeing each other often, in our Downtown Sudbury.
Because that's always what this has always been about, since 2001.
Rob, Mini, Nova and our absolutely AWESOME entire Durham Social Family ❤️💚🤍
PS. Please set your calendars now, make a reservation or just walk on up, call your Friends and Family and let's get this Friday Italian Lunch thing going - and we promise to make it just what we've all been missing all along.
Share and tag away?
