"Hi Jenni! How can we help?"…read more "Erm... hello?" This friendly exchange is set to put me at my ease, but the first time it happened I felt confused and a little bit scared! How did the stranger from the taxi firm know my name? Well, simply, whenever you book a taxi through Streamline Taxi, the friendliest cabbies in Bristol, they'll save your name and phone number to greet you for the next time. And it's likely that there will be a next time once you start using Streamline. They're always on time, call you the minute they're outside wherever they're picking you up (great for not waiting in the cold outside the pub) and will take you the quickest possible route. But my favourite thing about them is how personable all of their drivers are. I had the same driver take me and pick me up from a birthday party, and he remembered what I'd bought them, how old they were and who was going. "Did they like the photo album?" Fantastic! Streamline taxis may not be the cheapest firm in town but they are the most reliable, friendly and convenient.

This is my taxi service of choice - they're a very efficient firm and one of, if not the best, in…read moreBristol. They automatically remember your number if you've used them before, so when you ring them up again they'll know your name. This can be a little bit scary, but shows their level of efficiency and I have no problem with them doing so. They've been operating in the city since 1937, so clearly know it well. They promise a taxi within 10 minutes of your call, unless at very busy periods, in which case they'll tell you the soonest they can get there. The drivers have always been friendly in an honest way - you can often get those who force conversation in order to to receive a tip, but their drivers don't generally try to do so. All in all a very good firm, and I can recommend the safety and efficiency of their drivers.

Bristol is packed with taxi companies offering all services all over town at any time of day. The…read moreonly problem is knowing which one is open at which time. Dad's Cabs and Bristol Taxis are your two winners for anytime nipping about town, in my opinion. When it comes to the longer haul, when your entire family is landing at Bristol Airport, for instance, give these guys a ring. Best booked in advance the service delivered from the Brunel team is second to none. Good quality cars, on time and driven well. I think the maximum-seater is fourteen but it may go higher. Realistically though, would you want more than fourteen of your family members at one time?

Welcome to the new kids on the block!…read more Greenway Taxis Office is based in Westbury on Trym but they claim to serve pretty much the whole of Bristol and slightly beyond. So you may start seeing them around town. I called them from work a few days ago and they arrived pretty quickly. I had a little chat to the driver and found that the company is co-operatively owned and run by ex crown drivers and employees, it seems like a really good idea and gives them a chance to own a bit of a business. They claim to be a 24 hour service, which I can't verify for sure. They also have the slightly bigger cars for when there's 5 or 6 of you and it seems silly to get 2 smaller taxis. Worth giving them a chance - you can even pre-book a taxi online.
