Bad experiences with the big taxi firms, now looking local...

Recommended Posts

After too many examples of appallingly bad service from Addison Lee (lied about when the cab was due, waited nearly an hour then they tried to charge us for canceling!) and Keene Group (lies, lateness, but no charges at least), I'm on the hunt for a reliable local taxi firm.


Any recommendations?

I used to always use the cab office based at Herne Hill station when I was living in West Dulwich. On occasion used them after moving here, but don't use cabs as much now! They were reliable in my experiene back then. The man on the switch, Gerry, lives in ED.

The OLD ? Dulwich cars merged with the Keene group ? Presume the NEW Dulwich cars acquired their name.

Mason & Green are very good. Excellent rates to Gatwick & Heathrow. Excellent timekeeping, new & clean cars, and their drivers always wear suits and are always most polite.


We use them on a regular basis, and have not been let down thus far.

Hi


we always use rye cars. They are reliable and very well priced and a nice lady always answers the phone day or night! I think they take your card details for the first booking (ours was an airport trip at 5am) but after the first one they don't ask for card details again.


very nice taxi firm and i have always felt safe with them.

    • It was indeed in the vicinity of DKH. I live on the ED estate and I could tell it must be close by because of the noise. When I left my house this morning I found the culprits litter still in the middle of the st. It looked like they had lit a whole box on fire in the middle of the road. My cat jumped out of her skin. I’ll try and report it on Southwark website same as I have had to with other illegal use this week. Any other ideas for what we can do with the photos? Maybe one of the Southwark councillors. It’s outrageous and dangerous behaviour. 
    • Had another great meal there…. those that haven’t tried it, give it a go.. have a special lunch menu as well so you can get a flavour of the food. 
    • If you "cotton on" and read the council announcement, it clearly states "The library will be closed from 17 November until late June or early July 2026."  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/2025/dulwich-library-closing-refurbishment
    • I’ve been seeing Lisa at goose green clinic for energy work for a year now.  Lisa is kind, caring and hugely supportive. She is wonderfully masterful and trained as a reiki master for 20 plus years. Alongside other energy work.  My time spent with her is like therapy. An emotional safe space for deep conversations and reflection followed by relaxing and energising healing work.  each experience I’ve had has been different, the end result remains the same. Feel lighter, almost euphoric and almost float home. Definitely an experience not to be missed.  https://www.goosegreenclinic.net/therapies/healing-energy-work/
