Stratford: Location and Local Orientation
Stratford Underground station is recorded by TfL at Stratford Station BR Station St, London, E15 1DE. Use Station St and postcode E15 1DE to anchor your taxi or cab enquiry rather than a broad neighbourhood name. Its Underground fare-zone reference is 2 / 3; a Tube fare zone does not set the price of a taxi or minicab.
The closest other Underground station positions in this directory are West Ham (1.63 km), Leyton (1.65 km), and Plaistow (1.86 km). Those figures are straight-line distances calculated from TfL coordinates, not walking routes, station interchanges or journey-time estimates.
The published station postcode falls in the Newham local-authority area (Stratford Olympic Park ward). These postcode boundaries are administrative references; use your actual street destination when arranging a minicab.
Named Places Around Stratford
Named green-space landmarks around Stratford include Gym Box (other sports facility, approximately 0.28 km to the mapped boundary); St John's Church (religious grounds, approximately 0.39 km to the mapped boundary); London Aquatics Centre (other sports facility, approximately 0.48 km to the mapped boundary). These are straight-line distances derived from the TfL station position and Ordnance Survey’s April 2026 mapped site polygons. A boundary can be much closer than a usable entrance: these figures do not describe walking routes, road access or a place for a driver to wait.
If your journey ends at Gym Box, give its own entrance or street address when booking. A taxi booking for the Underground station identifies a different destination from the surrounding park, grounds or sports site. Confirm visitor arrangements with the site before travelling.

Luggage, Access and Your Minicab Meeting Point
The station’s captured TfL facilities reference includes lift facilities listed, escalator facilities listed, and toilets listed. Check current access with TfL if stairs or the final walk affect your journey: these are dated facilities references, and a facility listing alone does not establish a complete step-free route.
For a minicab at Stratford, give your actual entrance or nearby address, arrival line and luggage count. Agree a permitted road meeting place; the station address and photograph are location references, not waiting instructions.
Airport Taxi Planning from Stratford
For an airport cab from Stratford, start with the station collection address and the airport terminal, rather than only “London airport”. Holborn is an example of a Piccadilly-line interchange shared with the Central network; use TfL’s planner to compare that rail option on the day. A dispatcher must separately confirm the road journey, price, vehicle and any airport charges.
