    London Heathrow to Central London taxi

    I know this was posted some time ago but I can't find the link.

    Recommendations please for a reliable taxi company offering meet and greet facility for Heathrow T2 pick up to Central London.

    Thnks.

    Reliable. Can't comment on cost though.

    I'm planning to give Uber a try when I arrive in London in a couple of weeks... they quote £37 flat-rate from Heathrow to Central London/West End, in a Prius or similar.

    Problem I have with Uber and airport pick-up, where do they meet you?

    Am pretty sure they don't have a meet and greet service.

    I think the likes of Addison Lee have that ability.

    Googling around a bit most services do offer the meet and great and prices range from £25 to £70.

    The reliability factor is the important one here.

    I think Addisonlee is reliable. 40 is a pretty good price and similar to what we paid 2 years ago. You can also try Carrot cars. If you really want reliable, then just pay 80 pounds to take a taxi that's there.
