Taxi from Barnet to Euston for Trains to the Northwest
A taxi from Barnet to Euston is the easy way to catch a train to the northwest. From High Barnet it's about 10 miles and typically 40 to 55 minutes, depending on traffic and the time of day. Euston is the London home of Avanti West Coast, with trains to Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool and Glasgow, plus London Northwestern and Overground services. Our drivers drop you as close to the entrance as they can, so the concourse is only a short walk away. Euston is outside the Congestion Charge zone, and every fare is fixed before you travel. No meter, no surprises.
Why a Barnet to Euston Cab Beats a Long Tube Ride
Northern line trains from High Barnet on the Charing Cross branch do stop at Euston. Catch a bank branch train, though, and you'll be changing at Camden Town. Either way, it's a long ride with luggage, often standing, and plenty of stairs at both ends. A Barnet to Euston cab picks you up at your door, puts your bags in the boot and takes you straight there. For families, early departures or anyone carrying more than a backpack, it's simply the more comfortable choice, and splitting the fare between two or three people brings the cost down nicely.

Trains to the north-west

A long Tube ride
Northern line trains from High Barnet on the Charing Cross branch stop at Euston, but it's a long ride with a lot of stops, and trains on the Bank branch mean a change at Camden Town. With a suitcase, a Barnet to Euston taxi is simply easier: about 10 miles and usually 40 to 55 minutes.
Building work around Euston
The area around Euston can be slow because of building work and traffic on Euston Road. We'll suggest a pickup time that allows for it, and your driver will drop you as close to the entrance as they can.
Coming home
On a late train back from the north? Tell us which one and the car will be there when it pulls in. We run 24 hours, so a late arrival is no problem for the drive back to Whetstone, East Barnet or anywhere else in our area.
