Stratford in east London is one of the best-connected stations in the city, with the Elizabeth line, the Jubilee and Central lines, the DLR, the Overground and c2c services all meeting there. It sits beside Westfield Stratford City and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, which is where most of its non-commuter traffic is going.
Stratford or Stratford International
There are two stations. Stratford International, a short walk away, serves high-speed Southeastern services to Kent and is a separate building despite the name. Tell us which you need so your driver waits in the right place.
Where we meet you
Stratford is surrounded by pedestrianised areas, bus stations and shopping centre access roads, and stopping is restricted almost everywhere. Your driver agrees a specific meeting point with you before you arrive rather than trying to find you outside a station with several exits.
Journeys people book from Stratford
- To London City airport — a short run south east, one of the quickest airport journeys we run
- To Stansted — straightforward up the M11 from east London
- To Heathrow and Gatwick — long journeys across the city, where a direct car saves multiple changes
- Around east London — Canary Wharf, the Olympic Park, Hackney and the Docklands
Events at the Olympic Park
Concerts and matches at the stadium and the arena put very large crowds through Stratford at once, and the roads around the park are closed or restricted on event days. If you are travelling to or from an event, book well ahead and expect the meeting point to be further from the venue than usual. We will tell you where when you book.
Booking your Stratford Station transfer
Every journey is arranged and accepted in advance. We are a licensed private hire operator, not a street-hail taxi service, so cars cannot be flagged down or picked up from a rank.
When you request a journey, please give us:
- The passenger name and a contact telephone number
- Correct pickup and destination addresses
- The date and required pickup time
- The number of passengers, and the amount and size of luggage
- Flight or sailing details where they apply
- Any accessibility requirements that affect the vehicle we send
The price shown when you book is an estimate based on what you tell us. Our office confirms the final price before you travel, and it does not change afterwards because of traffic or a longer route.
