Not really mate, Marleybone high street area is for ok walk around but thats a bit of a walk from Euston and by time you get there you'll have to think abut making your way to Harley Street. Similar to Regents Park.

I'd just go for a nice coffee somewhere in between, explore the streets around via Warren St, Fitzroy square etc on way

Not far from Baker St if fictional detectives or waxwork celebrities are your thing. Marylebone High St is close by for the odd fancy boozer at extortionate prices (although there is a Sam Smith’s pub there too I think).

Fish & chips at the The Golden Hind on Marylebone Ln has always been good. They use to do these amazing halloumi fritters when I lived over there. They've been around for 100 years this year.

You could always check out the Wellcome Collection. Medical meets social history, they generally have a free exhibition of art and artifacts and it's pretty good of you're into that kind of thing.

Is that the one you can take your own drinks in? I’m sure I remember meeting a friend in a chippy round there for sit down fish & chips and was surprised (and delighted!) when she pulled a bottle of wine out of her bag :D

Kenny, The George Orwell statue at the BBC is worth a look and then pie and mash in the Wigmore - that’s a five minute walk if I remember right. If you’re allowed pies by your Harley street doctor like  ;D :lickin
