Why not the actual midpoint?
The geographic midpoint of Kilburn and Peckham is near Piccadilly Circus. Meeting there costs whoever is travelling furthest an extra 5 minutes; Waterloo 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.
