any chance of...? Could you give me another way of saying this expression? Examples: Any chance of a cup of coffee? Any chance of you coming to the party on Saturday? Thank you!

There isn't really an equivalent. It's a casual and familiar way of asking for something, used especially when you're aware that the answer may be 'no'. The nearest equivalent is 'Do you think...?', as in 'Do you think I could have a bit more time/ a loan of £10/ a lift to the station?'. We'd often add '...by any chance?' to the end of these requests - to make the point that you know that you're being a bit cheeky by asking.

Would you like to hang out for coffee sometime? Any chance for coffee soon? Do you want some coffee sometime? Would you like to come to the party on Saturday? Are you coming to the party on Saturday? Do you feel like coming to the party on Saturday?
