Car Service in Southwest Brooklyn
Bay Ridge runs along the Narrows in the southwest corner of Brooklyn. Shore Road and its park follow the water, Third and Fifth Avenues are lined with restaurants and shops, and Fort Hamilton sits at the foot of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. It feels like a small town that happens to be in New York City.
It’s also a long way from the subway for a lot of residents, and app cars can take a while to come this far south. We send a TLC-licensed, background-checked chauffeur at the time you booked. The price on your confirmation is all-in and doesn’t change with demand.

Bay Ridge is one of the few places in Brooklyn where Newark is a real option. The route over the Verrazzano and the Goethals skips Manhattan entirely. We check both the Belt Parkway and the bridges before we leave and pick the faster trip.
