Comber is small and delightful, but don’t be fooled by its size — when you need to be whisked away, particularly to Belfast, the airport or even just across town, a decent taxi can make your day (or night). It’s helpful knowing which numbers you should call, whether you’re off to work, a wedding, or, home from the pub.
I’ve taken a few Comber taxis over the years — gems, and not-so-great ones. Here’s a quick, no-nonsense guide to the best taxi firms in Comber you’ll actually want to ring.

1. Mill Taxis – Local & Trusted Taxis Service
Often this is my first call. They’re located in town, which translates to decent response times. The drivers are professionals and know all the back roads, particularly handy during rush hours.
Best for:
- Day-to-day local trips
- Belfast runs
- School and work transport
2. Aloha Taxis – Perfect for Out-of-Town Runs
If you are making your way out to the airport, or heading out to Sharon, Newtownards or Bangor, these guys are a good option. They’re dependable on even pre-dawn pickups, which is a major win.
Best for:
- Airport transfers
- Rural pickups
- Longer distance rides
3. Beccas Cabs — Straightforward Local Option
Beccas Cabs is one of those old-fashioned local businesses: just a number and a driver who happens to know everyone. It’s not glam, but it is reliable, especially for short hops around town.
Best for:
- Quick trips
- Budget-friendly rides
- Known faces and local drivers
4. Uber – Only If You’re Lucky
Uber does technically operate in Comber, but don’t necessarily rely on it. (The closer you get to Belfast, the more likely you are to find one, but there aren’t many in the towns.) Have the app, but also have a backup.
Best for:
- Fare estimates
- App-based payment
- Second flow if domestic firms are busy
5. Comber Executive Travel — Slick and Supple
Your best bet if you want for weddings, to transfer to the airport, or for a more classy experience. They have executive-style cars, suited drivers, and an upscale feel in general.
Best for:
- Business travel
- Events and weddings
- Long-distance trips or trips to the airport
