Liverpool Street station taxi guide
Liverpool Street station taxi rank: passenger guide
Liverpool Street has an appointed City of London taxi rank outside the station. TfL identifies it near platform 10, while Greater Anglia describes the rank as outside the front of the station.
The station has entrances on several streets and the Elizabeth line has expanded the wider interchange. From the National Rail concourse, use the taxi signs near platform 10 rather than leaving by the first visible exit.

Rail, Tube and local connections
- The Underground serves the Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines.
- The Elizabeth line station connects through the wider Liverpool Street and Moorgate complex.
- National Rail services include Greater Anglia routes and the Stansted Express. For airport travel, keep your airline terminal and check-in time ready.
Before you travel
Practical passenger tips
- The City has many security restrictions, one-way streets and buildings with more than one entrance. Give the exact street entrance.
- At weekday peaks, taxi demand can rise quickly as commuter trains arrive.
- A booked car may be assigned a side street. Do not assume it will collect from the black-taxi rank.
Useful for onward journeys
Popular destinations from Liverpool Street
These are orientation ideas, not fixed-fare quotes. London taxi fares are metered and journey time depends on traffic, restrictions and the exact destination.
The City of London
Use the building name plus street because towers may have public entrances away from their postal address.
Shoreditch and Spitalfields
Give a venue or postcode to distinguish similarly named streets and markets.
Stansted Airport connections
If your rail plan changes, tell the driver the airport and terminal requirements, and allow a generous margin.
Tower of London area
Specify the attraction, hotel or pier, as road access differs around Tower Hill.
Black taxi or minicab?
A licensed London taxi can wait at an appointed rank and accept a passenger without a booking. A minicab or app-based private-hire vehicle must be booked through a licensed operator before the journey. Do not accept an unsolicited ride from someone approaching you inside or outside the station.
Taxi availability is not live. A valid rank can be empty for a period, particularly late at night or during disruption.
