A really nice small-town post office! Friendly, helpful service, a good selection of new stamps, and a convenient location in downtown Kinderhook. Come here to mail a letter, then walk a block or less to grab coffee or a bite at one of the nearby shops!

My experiences with the Kinderhook village post office have been super positive. The guys that work the desk are hands on & helpful, there's never a long wait and they always help me figure out the most efficient/economical way to ship things. Maybe it's the stark contrast after so many years of Brooklyn post office mayhem, but I personally LOVE the Kinderhook post office!

If I could give this post office a 0 rating, I would! They have the most horrendous system I have ever seen! The mail man is too lazy to drive down our driveway and deliver our packages. Our driveway is within the length requirement that the post office has set and still they refuse to follow the rules. I try my absolute best to completely avoid ordering anything that would have to be shipped through the post office in Kinderhook. If you can avoid it, I would!
