Where to meet halfway between Greenwich and Kilburn
The fairest place is Westminster — 26 minutes from Greenwich and 28 from Kilburn, a difference of 2 minutes. Greenwich and Kilburn are 15.2 km apart on the map, which is the part that turns out not to matter.
Westminster has 10 pubs and bars, 25 cafés and 17 restaurants nearby — see what's there.
The options, ranked
| Meet at | From Greenwich | From Kilburn |

| Westminster | 26 min1 change | 28 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 Greenwich and Kilburn is near Blackfriars. Meeting there costs whoever is travelling furthest an extra 9 minutes; Westminster is fairer once you count real journey times. London's transport map is not its geography: the Thames splits it, and half the Tube lines don't cross it.
Where the answer changes
- if you both want the fastest trip Canary Wharf
- at lunchtime on a weekday Southwark
- on a Saturday evening Southwark
Getting home
Both of you can still get the last train home from Westminster, the longer trip back taking about 28 minutes.
