To get from Heathrow to Borough Market, you can take the Tube, a taxi, or a pre-booked minicab. The Tube is the cheapest option, with a fare of around £5.60, and takes roughly 50 minutes. A metered black cab typically costs between £75 to £130, while a pre-booked minicab is usually cheaper, with a fixed price of around £45 to £75.
Getting to Borough Market by Tube
The Piccadilly line Tube is a convenient option, with a journey time of around 50 minutes. You can take the Tube from any of the Heathrow terminals to Southwark or London Bridge stations, which are both a short walk from Borough Market.
Taking a Taxi or Minicab
If you prefer a door-to-door service, you can take a taxi or pre-book a minicab. The official ranks for metered black cabs are located just outside each terminal's arrivals hall, while pre-booked minicabs can be arranged in advance.
Pre-booking a Minicab
Pre-booking a minicab can be a more predictable and cost-effective option, especially if you're traveling in a group or have a lot of luggage. You can book a minicab in advance through a reputable operator, such as 247 UK Airport Taxi, which fixes the price before you travel and tracks your flight.
Other Options
You can also consider taking the Heathrow Express to Paddington, and then taking a taxi or the Tube to Borough Market. Alternatively, you can take a taxi or pre-book a minicab from the airport to Borough Market. For more information on public transport options, you can visit our website.
