As a child, my next door neighbors had three (3) United Cabs, and all of them were Checker…read moreMarathons. They had cab numbers 101, 227 & 475. The cool thing about cab number 101 is that it was the lowest numbered cab in the company, and from what I am told, it was the most desirable cab number in the fleet. But I digress. Even back then, I rarely had the need for a cab but I had a close relationship with these three cabbies and United Cabs is the only cab I have ever taken in those rare instances when I do need a cab. Like Yelper John L.H. stated, "If you have to take a cab in New Orleans, insist on United". Call me old fashioned, but when in New Orleans, I would always choose United Cabs over Uber and/or Lyft. They've been in business since 1938, so they definitely know the city. They have over 400 cabs and are also the largest fleet in the city. According to their website, " All Drivers are: Licensed FBI Background Checked, Finger Printed, and Drug Tested. All Vehicles are Equipped with Cameras. All vehicles equipped with credit card machines for your convenience. They take Cash & Credit Cards. All Vehicles Pass An Annual 27-Point City Inspection Before Allowed To Carry Passengers". Do yourself a favor, if you need a professional lift, choose United Cabs. You'll have the peace of mind that you are using the best service in the city.

The taxi was dirty, seats worn out and either the AC was broken or the driver decided just not turn on the AC and just use the fan... nice HOT/STEAMY Nola air. Well, it was only 102° so many he was cold? Second, I reserved a cab the day before I needed it for a trip to a concert. Got a notice from my app, 15 minutes before pick up... No drivers, reservation canceled. I used Uber for less money than the cab. Third NO driver to take me to the airport from my hotel. .. again, Uber for $28. much less than United. I have deleted the app from my phone and will not waste my time in the future. UBER is so much more dependable. And they always had the AC on.

Arrived very promptly he gave me his card and was very polite and sweet and answered quite a few questions for me! He even was very polite to offer to wait with me and i just thought that that was such a nice gesture giving the known facts I'm a single petite middle aged woman(37and a half lol) all by her lonesome and Baton Rouge isn't the safest of places so yeah that's was pretty freaking awesome of u ask me!!! But I told him no no go ahead I'm sure he had things he had to do or other rides or something but he insisted he could wait but I had to go in fix my sugar w some shake anyways so but yeah long story short superb exp.

My fare with Metry was half of that and the driver, #83, Jeremy, was GREAT!! He arrived 10 minutes earlier than promised (I was VERY happy about that because I told dispatch the body shop closed at 5 and I needed them to come ASAP due to rush hour.) Jeremy was polite, an outstanding and safe driver and I was enjoying our conversation so much I wished my trip was longer. I've only had good experiences with Metry Cab and think they deserve a better rating so I hope this helps. THANKS so much to the dispatcher and to Jeremy for getting me to the shop in plenty of time before they closed. Support local businesses and this excellent Metairie "born and raised here" driver! As usual with native born New Orleanians, you find out within seconds that you know a bunch of people in common and share a lot of the same experiences. Gotta love it!
