Where we collect around Angel
Tell us the exact door or corner when you book. Popular pickups:
- Angel Underground station — Northern line, Bank branch, with exits onto Islington High Street.
- Chapel Market — the street market a few steps from the station, busy on Saturdays.
- Camden Passage — the antiques and independent-shop lane off Upper Street.
- Business Design Centre — the Grade II listed exhibition hall on Upper Street.
- Sadler’s Wells — the dance theatre on Rosebery Avenue.
- Almeida Theatre — on Almeida Street, off Upper Street.
Evenings here revolve around the theatres and restaurants, so pre-booking a car for the end of the show beats queueing on the pavement. Shoppers leaving Camden Passage with antiques or bulky purchases often book a larger car so everything fits. Early starts from the flats around Upper Street are common for King’s Cross and Eurostar departures.
The station is famous for having some of the longest escalators on the Underground, which is one more reason passengers with pushchairs or heavy cases prefer a car waiting at street level. If you are meeting someone off a train, tell us which end of Islington High Street suits you best and we will keep the pickup short and simple. Weekend mornings around Chapel Market are crowded with stalls, so we usually suggest a side street nearby.

For Eurostar, give us your train time and we plan the pickup around the check-in window at King’s Cross St Pancras.
Angel airport transfers
Many N1 residents leave for the airport before the first trains are running, and a pre-booked car makes those 4am starts painless.
London City is the closest airport to N1, with Luton and Stansted reached by heading north. Your driver watches your flight and adjusts if it lands early or late. All six airports are covered:
- London City Airport transfers — the nearest airport to Angel.
- Luton Airport transfers — a run north via the A1 and M1.
- Stansted Airport transfers
- Heathrow Airport transfers
- Gatwick Airport transfers
- Southend Airport transfers
Islington’s streets are busy with cyclists and buses, so drivers usually pull in on a quieter side road close to your door rather than stopping on Upper Street itself.
