Train to London Bridge and then bus (48 or 149) from LB to Liverpool Street station. The bus normally takes between 15 and 20 minutes depending on traffic and time of day.


Edited to add: obviously it depends where in ED you're starting from. 5imon's routes are both good alternatives, although the 40 might take longer than that in rush hour?

40 Bus goes to Aldgate, not Liverpool St. Aldgate is 7 min walk from LS.


Train to LB then either:

149, 42 or 35 bus to LS or walk up to LS


If you're getting the bus, it may be quicker to walk to South side of London Bridge itself and wait for your bus at the bus stop just before the river (outside Barrow Boy and Banker bar). The buses (ie. 149) leaving LB station get caught in shocking traffic trying to navigate the junction out to the bridge, esp in rush hour.

But Journey Planner only tells you the theoretical times. WE are getting real experiences here. Also Journey planner can come up with some very strange routes and isn't aware of how close some Underground Stations are to Over Ground Stations.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
