Taxis in Hatfield
Rides from Hatfield station, the university and The Galleria, with Heathrow about 30 minutes away on clear roads at a price fixed upfront.
We accept all major cards and digital payment methods.
Old Hatfield, new Hatfield, all of it
Hatfield mixes old and new. Opposite the station stands Hatfield House, the Jacobean home set in a large park, with Old Hatfield's narrow streets beside it. Across town, the University of Hertfordshire brings students to the College Lane and de Havilland campuses, and The Galleria draws shoppers from all over the county. We pick up from student halls, the business park, the town centre and Hatfield station at any hour.
Thanks to the A1(M) and M25, Heathrow is only about 30 minutes from Hatfield on clear roads. Luton Airport takes roughly 23 minutes, Stansted around 48 minutes and Gatwick about 1h 06m. We follow your flight in, so waiting caused by a delay is never charged.
Students often book us for the start and end of term, when there are suitcases, boxes and a long trip home. King's Cross is around 36 minutes by car on clear roads, and the run to The Galleria or Hatfield House takes just a few minutes.
