Coventry's oldest taxi firm and we believe we are actually the oldest, still operating, taxi firm in the country. Coventry Arena Taxis and Transport Services Ltd was founded in 2005 and purchased Godiva Taxis in 2006 and Allens Taxis in 2011, amalgamating two giants of the Coventry Taxi Trade. We now trade as Allens Taxis.
Allens Taxis is one of Coventry's most established businesses and Allens is synonymous to taxis to the people of Coventry. Allens taxis has been moving the people of Coventry since 1938 when it was originally founded by Aubrey Allen. It did not run during WW11 but reopened in 1946 when Mr Allen bought a taxi with his demob money as a sideline to his butcher shop.
We have a fleet of 150+ vehicles with saloon cars, traditional 5 seater London black cabs, 6,7 and 8 seaters. Each driver's credentials, passport, driving licence, driving history, criminal/convictions etc are checked and verified by the TLO.
All Drivers have to undergo training in disability awareness and customer care, wheelchair assistance training and child sexual exploitation awareness training to ensure you receive the highest level of professionally trained service.

Awful service we pre booked a 5 seater taxi for Coventry train station in the morning for that evening, double checked it would be a 5 seater that could also take our luggage too! Car was 25 minutes late, after us phoning 20 min later we were told he was 3 min away ! 15 minutes later a 4 seater turns up!!! Great ended up having to take our car & park it in the station now for 4 days!!! Thanks for nothing will be back to using Uber from now! Shocking way to run a business and when we phoned to ask what went wrong the arrogant bloke put the phone straight down!!! 😡

Waited outside a supermarket for 25 minutes with my young daughter for a cab. Called them and a lady answered phone and told me they didn’t have a cab available in the cv2 area! I said well could you not of let me know this?! She wasn’t bothered! Shall never use them again. Awful service.

Called Allens taxis some two weeks ago to travel from Gibbet Hill to Coventry Station. The taxi was late and the dispatcher was rude and on the second chasing call he cut off the call. I would point out that at no time was I disrespectful or rude. I was just enquiring into the arrival time. I dont use Taxis that often but Allens is the Coventry Cab firm to be avoided . And all down to the dispatcher. A course in Customer service is required.
