Hi,
whatever you do don't tell him how you feel just yet.
He is testing the waters seeing how you guys get along outside of the workplace . Remember work relationships are very risky as if things go pearshaped you have to face each other every day. So it's natural to test the waters first to see if it's worthy taking the risk.
But you can't wait for ever, give him a couple/three months and if you still feel the same suggest dinner or a movie with just the two of you. But the fact he is asking you out to meet friends suggests he is very interested.
good luck.

well im sure he knows that you like him, and if he didnt reciprocate he probably wouldnt want to spend so much time with you. if he saw you as just a friend, then the time you spend together would probably be different. do you go for coffee and lunch alone? i think that you should take things slow with him, and dont jump into the 'what are we doing here' conversation too soon. get to know him a little bit more and spend more time with him. if its going to happen, it will just come naturally! enjoy your time with him and relax, good luck!

I would say he does like you otherwise he wouldn't invite you. Inviting you to coffee and lunch sometimes isn't as big a clue as asking you out to dinner with a few friends :)
I agree with the others here. Take it slow and just get to know him and his friends. If it's meant to be things will progress from there... When you've been out a few times together outside of work then think about having "the chat".
Definitely sounds like he is interested :)
Best of luck!

You will send him scurrying for the hills and bloody scared stiff. Be lively, bubbly and happy and stay clear of indepth conversations.
take care
