Taxi From Barnet to Charing Cross for Southeastern Trains to Kent

A taxi from Barnet to Charing Cross is a quick way to reach Southeastern trains to Kent without changing lines. It's about 11 miles from High Barnet and typically 50 to 65 minutes, depending on traffic. Northern line trains on the Charing Cross branch do run direct from High Barnet, but Bank branch trains don't, and the tube is hard work with luggage. Our Charing Cross cabs take you straight to the station at a fixed fare. Charing Cross is inside the Congestion Charge zone, and we'll confirm whether the charge is included when we quote.

Barnet to West End Taxis for Theatres and Nights Out

Charing Cross sits right in the heart of the West End, next to Trafalgar Square and a short stroll from Covent Garden, the theatres and the River Thames. That makes it a popular drop-off for nights out. Book a Barnet-to-West End taxi for dinner and a show, and you'll arrive relaxed rather than squashed on a busy train. We drop off near Trafalgar Square and the theatres, so you're never far from your seat.

Charing Cross Minicabs Home After the Show

Getting home after the curtain falls is the part people dread. Theatre crowds, packed platforms and a long ride north. Pre-book a Charing Cross minicab instead. We'll arrange a meeting point close to the theatre or on a quieter side street, away from the crowds, and your driver will be waiting when you come out. A fixed fare and a straight run home to Barnet is a lovely way to end the evening.

Trains to Kent

Southeastern trains run from Charing Cross through south-east London to Kent. If you're travelling with luggage, a Barnet cab to the station is easier than the Tube.

Theatres and nights out

Charing Cross is the natural drop-off for Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden and the theatres of the West End. Book the ride home for curtain-down and we'll arrange a meeting point on a quieter side street.

By Tube

Northern line trains from High Barnet on the Charing Cross branch run here directly. Trains on the Bank branch don't, so check the destination board.

Congestion Charge
