13 pounds to my house from downham but only 9.99 to get a pizza delivered from same place. Also Bishops Taxi drivers are incredibly awkward on the roads refusing to reverse to let cars reverse into parking spaces as they do not seem to get the idea of how to drive here in the UK, please stop giving your money to companies like this!!!!!

Really friendly approachable, funny and incredibly helpful. Never been to Downham Market before the driver was able to give me updates on my train and got me there on time.

Taxi arrived bang on time but halfway through the short journey, the driver started rummaging around on the passenger seat and then to our horror, opened his A4 diary across the steering wheel and was booking other jobs in whilst driving, not paying attention to where he was going! Very very worrying, won't use again if that's their attitude to customer safety.
