A Primrose Hill taxi from Swiss Cottage Taxis is a short drive away. Our cars reach Regent's Park Road, Chalcot Square and Gloucester Avenue in a few minutes via Adelaide Road or Elsworthy Road. You can book at any hour, and the fare is agreed before you set off.
Primrose Hill has no tube station of its own. The nearest is Chalk Farm on the Northern line, which is a walk away and has stairs. For many residents, a pre-booked car is the most practical way to travel, especially with luggage, children or pets.
Primrose Hill minicab for local trips
Our Primrose Hill minicab service is used for shopping trips, restaurant bookings and visits to friends nearby. Popular short journeys include Camden Town, St John's Wood and Swiss Cottage itself. If you have been out on the hill for the view across London, you can book a car to meet you at one of the park gates on the way down.
Dog owners walk the hill every day, and we can arrange a pet friendly taxi for trips to the vet, the groomer or further afield.
Taxi to London Zoo
London Zoo sits on the Outer Circle of Regent's Park, just across the canal from Primrose Hill. With small children, buggies and bags, a taxi to London Zoo saves a long walk. Tell us when you book that you are going to the Zoo, and the driver will drop you near the main entrance. For the journey home, you can book a pick-up time or call us when you are ready.

Train stations near Primrose Hill
Euston is the closest main line station, followed by King's Cross and St Pancras. A car is often quicker than the tube because there is no change of line. If you are catching a train from the south of London, see Waterloo or London Bridge.
For groups, we can send a 6 seater taxi or a 7 seater taxi. Payment can be made by card or cash.
Regent's Park, Marylebone and the West End
Primrose Hill is right next to Regent's Park, and many residents travel south through the park to Marylebone, Baker Street or Oxford Street. The Outer Circle around the park is a pleasant road, but it can be slow with cyclists and visitors at weekends. A pre-booked car lets you plan around this, and the driver can drop you close to a shop, restaurant or theatre door. If you are going to the open-air theatre in Regent's Park, book your return for the end of the show and we will agree a pick-up point near one of the park gates.
