Beckenham High Street minicab

Beckenham High Street is a long, attractive street of shops, restaurants and bars, busy at lunchtime and lively in the evening. The southern end near the war memorial roundabout is where most of the evening crowd gathers.

Stopping on the High Street is limited, so our drivers use side streets and safe spots nearby. Tell us the restaurant or bar you are at, and the driver will call when they arrive. On Friday and Saturday nights, book ahead.

Beckenham Junction pickup

Beckenham Junction is the main station, with Southern trains to Victoria and London Bridge and Southeastern services towards Victoria. It is also a Tramlink stop, with trams running to Croydon.

We pick up and drop off at the station forecourt. For an early train, a late return or a lot of luggage, a booked car makes the trip simple. Tell us the train time and we will be there.

Elmers End, Clock House and Eden Park

Beckenham has several other stations. Clock House, on Beckenham Road, has Southeastern trains to Hayes and London. Elmers End has Southeastern trains plus a Tramlink stop. Eden Park and New Beckenham serve the edges of the area.

Tell us which station you need when you book. We collect from all of them.

Kelsey Park and Beckenham Place Park

Kelsey Park, off the High Street, has a lake, woodland walks and a café, and it is a favourite with families and dog walkers. Beckenham Place Park, to the north, is a huge park with a lake you can swim in during the summer, open grassland and woods.

We drop off and collect at the park gates. For a day out with the dog, our pet friendly minicab makes sure the driver is happy to carry animals.

A town with a village feel
