Cheriton Road in Folkestone is best known as the home of Folkestone Invicta FC — the town's non-league football club — as well as a busy part of this Kent coastal town. Whether you're heading to a match, need a local ride, or want a connection to the coast, ports or an airport, this guide covers taxi options and fixed fares around Cheriton Road and Folkestone.
On match days, the Cheriton Road stadium draws local fans and visiting supporters, and parking around the ground fills quickly. A fixed-price taxi is the easy way to arrive and leave — dropped right by the ground, and picked up afterwards without hunting for your car among the crowds. For groups of fans travelling together, an V Class keeps everyone in one vehicle and splits the fare.

Beyond the football, Folkestone itself has become one of the Kent coast's success stories, with a regenerated Harbour Arm, a thriving creative quarter, the clifftop Leas promenade and a growing food and arts scene drawing visitors back to a town on the up. This revival means more reasons than ever to travel around Folkestone — a meal down at the Harbour, an event in the Creative Quarter, a walk along the Leas, or a trip out along the coast to Hythe or Dover. A fixed-price taxi ties all of this together conveniently, and combined with the town's excellent cross-Channel connections via the Tunnel and Dover ports, it makes Cheriton Road and Folkestone a well-served base whether you're a local, a football fan, or a visitor exploring the revitalised Kent coast.
