area and was wondering if I would be safe taking the tube to the
club from there.


I should expect so, although I have no idea where the Way Out Club is.



Neither did I, I don't think it's quite me somehow, but they do have a web
site, which gives the address as: 9 Crosswall (off Minories) London EC3.
This is very near to Fenchurch Street main line station, however, this is
now the only main line London Terminus which does not also have an
Underground station. Tower Hill Underground station is however only a
short distance away, a couple of hundred metres maybe, and can be reached
direct from Paddington by Circle line (the yellow line) on the map trains.
You could go either way around the Circle, but an Eastbound train (via
Kings Cross) is somewhat shorter than Westbound (via Victoria). Trains run
every few minutes, and the journey will take about 20-25 minutes.


....although it would be quicker to take a Bakerloo to Embankment and
then change to the eastbound District/Circle. These are more frequent
trains too - the Circle on its own only runs every 7-9 minutes and is
quite unreliable.
