Where to meet halfway between Fulham and Stratford

Westminster has 10 pubs and bars, 25 cafés and 17 restaurants nearby — see what's there.
The options, ranked
| Meet at | From Fulham | From Stratford |
|---|---|---|
| Westminster | 21 mindirect | 26 mindirect |
| Bank | 28 mindirect | 17 mindirect |
| London Paddington | 24 mindirect | 26 mindirect |
| Oxford Circus | 27 min1 change | 25 mindirect |
Only places within reach of both are listed — anything meaningfully worse than Westminster is left off rather than padded in.
Why not the actual midpoint?
The geographic midpoint of Fulham and Stratford is near Blackfriars. It is a reasonable option too — but Westminster still edges it on journey time, which is what actually decides how long you each spend travelling. London's transport map is not its geography: the Thames splits it, and half the Tube lines don't cross it.
