Where are Central London Baptist Churches?

We are often asked by email about churches in Central London which Baptist visitors might attend for the Sunday they are in London - usually while staying in a hotel in the centre of London.

The question is a difficult one to answer because such visitors will have different experiences and expectations of worship. They may also come from different kinds of Baptist Church. we usually confine our recommendations to churches with websites as they should allow visitors to determine the times of services in advance and often have online maps showing how they can be found. Click to see a list of LBA Church websites.

Te only LBA Church inside the Circle Line is Bloomsbury Baptist Church but King's Cross Baptist Church is close to King's Cross and St Pancras station (a joint station) on the Circle Line and so close to the Eurostar International Rail Terminal.

Some visitors appreciate knowing about the Metropolitan Tabernacle because it was Spurgeon's church even though it is not currently a member of the Baptist Union or the London Baptist Association.

Hillingdon Park Baptist Church is close to Hillingdon station - the next to last station at the western end of the Metropolitan Tube line. But it may be especially convenient for those staying in hotels near to Heathrow Airport - it is only 10 minutes by car or taxi from Heathrow.

We have even known people travel all the way via Waterloo to Teddington Baptist Church because they have found the website so helpful with train times and clear directions from Teddington station!

We will happily add other churches to this list but the criteria are (a) that they have websites; (b) are easy to get to; and (c) are prepared to be friendly to overseas visitors.
