Nightlife in Romford
Romford is a busy suburb on the eastern side of Greater London, and its evenings centre on the market place and the streets close to the station.
Starting at the station
Romford station has frequent trains towards central London, which makes the town an easy place to start from and an easy place to leave. Most of the evening options are a few minutes on foot from the platforms, so you do not need a cab to get from one place to the next.

The Market Place and South Street
The Market Place is a wide open square at the heart of the town, with a market on certain days and, in the evening, bars and eating places nearby. South Street is one of the streets best known for pubs and bars, and it is a lively choice if you want a busier atmosphere. If you prefer a quieter table, look at the smaller places off the main routes instead.

Gidea Park and Hornchurch
A little east, Gidea Park is a leafy suburb with its own station and a calmer set of pubs and restaurants. Hornchurch, nearby, has a village centre feel and a similar pace. Both suit people who want a slower evening than the town centre offers, and both are a short taxi from Romford.

Getting back after dark
Because Romford is within Greater London, you can use licensed black cabs and private hire cars regulated by Transport for London. Book a private hire car through an operator rather than accepting an approach on the street, and check the vehicle matches the booking. London buses also run late, but check the route and the final service before relying on them.
