The Most Unlikely Location I Dislike in London
When it comes to pinpointing a uniquely offbeat place that I particularly loathe in London, it might surprise you. It’s not the bustling tourist hubs or overcrowded public transport spots, but rather, a seemingly ordinary location near the McKinsey & Company office on Museum Street in Holborn.
This specific area consistently hosts a peculiar scene: a trolley perpetually loaded with Deliveroo bags positioned by the revolving doors. As a regular attendee of evening language classes in Holborn, this sight has become a familiar fixture during my evening strolls. Without fail, I encounter delivery drivers flocking around this spot, leaving meals for the young professionals entrenched in their graduate schemes, working late into the night. Witnessing this scenario repeatedly offers a glimpse into the relentless pace of corporate life, casting a somewhat somber shadow over my otherwise peaceful walks.
