Use often as live nearby. Fast and efficient. No to very little wait- which is amazing. Not as hidden if you ask the courthouse guards to guide you.
To get there: Enter the building through the main doors of the courthouse. Pass through metal detector, then go downstairs- guards are SUPER friendly and will guide you to the elevators to get to post office downstairs, then follow the sign.

This post office is completely empty. Every time I go in there the same guy is working and he is helpful with anything you need. This post office is inside Queens Borough Hall so you have to go through a metal detector to get inside. This post office is in the basement and is not easy to find. It has very limited hours, which are even further limited by the fact that Queens Borough Hall isn't open to the public until 8:30am, even though it claims to open at 8:15. I got there today at 8:25, thinking that it opened at 8:30. Typically there is no line for security but since it wasn't open, there was a large line of people waiting to get in. By the time I got in, went through security, waited for the elevator, and got to the basement, it was almost time for the post office to close again. As I was filling out the addresses on the priority mail envelope, the post office worker asked me if I was almost done because it was time to close.
I would normally give 3 or 4 stars because of the very limited hours but I think the average rating for this post office is unfairly low so I'm giving 5 stars to help offset the balance. It's a very nice post office and very quiet. I'm someone who gets a lot of anxiety waiting on lines with a crowd of people and this post office avoids that, unless you arrive before queens borough hall opens.

Open from 8:15 to 8:45, then closed until 9:45. They take lunch (and so are closed) from 1-2 PM, and close for the day at 3:30 PM
