About Northcote

Northcote is an inner northern suburb of Melbourne, located 5 km from the CBD in postcode 3070. High Street runs through the heart of the suburb and is one of the most interesting retail strips in the inner north, lined with vintage clothing stores, independent bookshops, specialty food shops, and long standing cafes. The suburb sits along the Merri Creek corridor, with walking and cycling paths connecting through to Heidelberg in the north and Fitzroy in the south.

Northcote is well served by tram, with routes along High Street and St Georges Road making it easy to get around without a car. Despite good public transport, taxis are commonly used for late night travel after dining out, for airport runs, and for getting to events at the Melbourne Showgrounds or the MCG without dealing with train connections. Parking can be tight near the shopping strips, so many residents prefer to be dropped off rather than drive.

Silver Taxi covers Northcote for airport transfers, late night rides, corporate pickups, and general bookings throughout the day. A typical run to Melbourne Airport from postcode 3070 comes to between $65 and $80 depending on the time of day and route. You can book in advance through the website or call 0412 456 588 directly for a same day pickup.
