The buzz of bankside 

Myo Bankside is located on the Southern side of the Thames, where the area is known as one of the top places to work in London if you’re looking for eclectic food and drink. 

From Borough Market to Flat Iron Square, no one working in Bankside goes hungry on their lunch break. Spoilt for choice, select from a variety of sleek restaurants to dine in or get a takeaway portion of street food and sit alongside the river. 

Getting around

The transport connections in this area are excellent and cover land and sea (well, river).

Our Bankside offices are just a two-minute stroll from the Bankside Ferry Port, a convenient River Bus stop that can take you to any of the following places in no time at all:

• Battersea Power Station Pier
• North Greenwich Pier
• Royal Wharf

Meanwhile, London Bridge, Mansion House, Borough, and Southwark are all between 10 and 15 minutes’ away from our office.  London Bridge in particular offers excellent connections out of London, including (but not limited to): 

• London Cannon Street
• Gravesend via Sidcup
• Kings Cross/St. Pancras (for Eurostar)
• Luton Airport Parkway & Gatwick Airport for international travel
• Beckenham Junction via Crystal Palace
