My husband phoned Addison Lee when I got to the stage of labour where I needed to go to the hospital. He pre-warned them of what was happening and they arrived promptly.


The driver was pretty good about it all and tried his best to ignore the yelps coming from the back seat. I don't remember too much about it all but I think my husband was impressed by their service. I think I may have scared the living daylights out of the poor driver though. He definitely got a tip.


We also have had good (but non labour) experience with Dulwich Cars. Friendly, reliable and prompt.

Hi Bambi70


Not sure which hospital you plan to go to, but when I gave birth at Tommys, they gave out a taxi number of a firm willing to take labouring mothers. I was given this when I did an ante-natal tour of the unit. Perhaps if you call your hospital they may have a similar arrangement? Best of luck for the birth - I in fact nearly gave birth in the cab to the hospital!

      Chango - New local gem alert!

      By HeadNun · Posted

      Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's.

      When does a family run business become a chain?

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
