If you stand in front of the embassy with the eagle over your head Gould's pharmacy is on the street to your right. You can almost see if from the front desk. Check it out on Streetview that's what I did.

Re - Paying MRV - following the link posted above and make sure you select K1 Visa FIRST - if you don't you won't be able to pay the MRV fee.

.also is the pharmacy where I can leave my stuff easy to find? I'm really not great with directions and don't want to be wandering around aimlessly trying to find it lol

Here's my custom map. You can move it, zoom in and out to see bus's stops and Tube stations, but it's better on a PC than mobile device. Embassy, Gould's, hotels marked. See the symbol key. http://www.click2map.com/maps/nichnick/Embassy_London

Since I have my interview date now, I should pay for this Visa now, right? Is the payment system working properly now? I read a while back about people having issues and confusion with paying for it online before their interviews and such.

Current Status: AOS - Processing

Choose "Pay for a K1 visa" as the first step. That's where people were going wrong. At least they changed it to be more clear. It used to say "Apply" for a K1 visa, which you pretty much already have done by the paying point of the process.

Full instructions are at the end of this document. http://photos.state.gov/libraries/unitedkingdom/164203/cons-visa/IV019_fiance_appt_letter.pdf
