It depends on your scenario.

for example

If your WCF services needs to be consumed in the internal or local network even in the Intranet - TCP is the best

If your WCF services needs to be consumed outside the organization or from throughout the world - HTTP is the way to go

All others you have mentioned are basically for machine to machine communication or if your services and application are within close proximity and within your network.

Hope this will help.

I think if you are working only for LAN(Intranet), NamedPipe will be the best.

If you want it to be used over Internet, HTTP is best.

If you can have WCF in both ends , you can work with TCP.
