- RYRoyce YapAug 24, 20265.0Posting this here to bump up the review rating which is unnecessarily low. The associate who helped me was very kind and helpful. Would come here again anytime.
- JJJaneJul 8, 20265.0Gary is so kind and amazing! Thank you so much!
- CRCybele ReedMay 20, 20265.0Super friendly!
- NTNia TaylorMar 6, 20265.0The staff here are so kind and patient. They have a great selection of stamps and despite almost always having a line; I rarely spend more than 15 minutes here. I also appreciate that they have a self-service machine unlike many of the other locations in this area. Definitely my favorite local post office
- LSLizzie SiegleAug 29, 20255.0A lot of reviews say bad service but I had good fast service. Nice Asian man working the desk. I was initially annoyed because the doors were locked but I had to walk around to the entrance next to Gambino’s, the lunch place that had some outdoor tables. They have a lot of stamps here which i like! I usually go to other post offices in SF for stamps but had never been given such a selection. I picked SpongeBob stamps and also Ruth bader Ginsberg!
