- DMdon maxJul 17, 20255.0As a traveler exploring the Bay Area, I stopped by the USPS in Alamo area, we needed to send some souvenirs and postcards back home. We weren't expecting much from a post office visit, but this location was a fantastic surprise. Easy-to-Find Location: Right in Alamo Plaza, the post office is easily accessible with available parking, making it a convenient stop. If you’re traveling in the area and need postal services, this location is worth visiting for its reliable and pleasant experience.
- KYKathy YoungJul 15, 20255.0My husband and I just received such high quality service it honestly amounted to concierge level service from Ali who processed our expired passport renewal. We arrived without an appointment (you can make an appointment but they will try to serve you if they can even without an appointment,) Ali took our photos, processed the forms and in ten minutes at most, we were all set and out the door. Best of all was Ali’s professionalism and friendly attitude. UPDATE: On the above review and an added exceptional experience. We applied for our US Passport renewals with Ali at Alamo USPS on July 15, 2025. We received our new Passports Aug 13 and 15, 2025. Great service time. On Aug 15, 2025, I took my 95 year old aunt in for passport renewal of her expired passport. Ali helped us. His patience and professionalism were superb. Great staff at Alamo, USPS office.
- CGCourtenay GonzalezSep 17, 20241.0I had a HORRIBLE experience with a man named Edward there who processes passport applications. He told me “it is against federal regulations to [breastfeed] in a federal building.” He would not serve me until I finished feeding my preemie baby. I complained to his direct supervisor and to the USPS corporate but never heard back. I will not return to this office and I hope Edward no longer bullies, discourages and embarrasses women who are feeding their children.

- KDKaren-Richard DavisMar 11, 20161.0We have our mail held when we leave town. With our last 3 requests mail was delivered to our home at least one of the days during our requested hold period. This is a red flag for home invasiins & we are very frustrated.
