Now though, the post office is franchised to the Spar that it co-locates with. Result being, it's the Spar staff who now man the post office counter. Which is great. They know what they're doing and they're just plain nice whilst they're doing it! Not much else to say really, it sells stamps, takes in packages and does most of the range of post office services. No bureau de change though.

There are three sets of service desks: Self-service, business, travel and everything else. I forget how they labelled this one but it seemed to be for just regular non-business customers. There was a long queue when I arrived but they cleared it pretty quickly, I don't think I waited as much as five minutes to post my parcel. The staff member helping me was friendly and helpful enough although not very on the ball. He did try to sell me a credit card which I've not seen before but maybe this is a new thing to try to get the Post Office to make more money. They also have some stationary and bits and pieces on sale, things like jiffy bags and bubble wrap and they're advertising a deak at the moment where you can get cheap travel insurance when you get your travel money with them. It's handy enough if you're in the city centre but it's a little but chaotic and I suspect at peak times those queues get really long.

After amassing some postcards over the first approximately fourteen days of my heritage travel trip…read moreto Scotland in July 2019, I was looking for a place to buy stamps so I could mail them before departing a few days later. The Sandyford Post Office was located a couple of blocks from where I was staying, the Argyll Hotel, so I stopped by on a walk. Sure enough they had stamps, and at a good rate. Other services were available including shipping and mailing, but I was waiting until my last full day to mail them - so I just went with the stamps. They were pretty in purples and blues and were enough to get the cards to their destination.

I went there today to print 15 pgs,one sided black and white and they wanted to charge me 22 pounds…read morefor it. That's a scam! After I questioned the price the guy told me that was the rate for all of the post offices in the area. Ended up charging me 10 pounds after pressuring me to pay by saying that he had already printed the pgs and I needed to pay. Anyways I checked the receipt and it only says 10 pounds withdrawal, and no mentioning about the services I got. I called the central office (customer service complaint) and they will be conducting an investigation in this location. Left a review on google and owner left a rude comment putting the blame on me for not checking the prices on the printer which by no chance it was visible and honestly this is not the rating for printing anywhere (it's usually a couple of cents). I spent hours with people on the phone today and theres no way that they could have charged me 22 pounds for basic printing services. Be careful out there everyone, even in difficult times like this there are people trying to scam. By no chance I thought this would have happened at the local post office.

The staff are nice and friendly, and it is not a cramped place - large room with all the expected parcel items like envelopes, packing tape, padding etc. The card range is quite good too. There have never been big queues which is a nice change from other post offices I have frequented. You can park outside or further along the road as it is not 'yellow lined' or parking metered. There is a chemist next door if you need to pick anything up which is handy.

Instead, the area to the left of the ramp now has lots of interesting stationery and other knick-knacks - notebooks, wrapping papers, local interest books, games and general 'stuff'. It's a good place to browse for that little stocking-filler present for somebody. The other side still carries a good selection of cards. Things have gotten busier now, and there's often a longer queue for the post office than there used to be. They do have a self-service machine, but I've always found it unreliable and seldom trust it to complete a transaction without something going wrong. It's worth keeping an eye on the shop counter while you're queuing for the post office, as they will often call you over if they're not too busy.

The shop/post office/cafe was quite busy which is great a new business. The gift shop section is packed full of gems like Nikki McWilliams cushions (you know the ones, they're shaped like biscuits), posh salted caramel marshmallows, sewing kits, notepads - so many beautiful Glasgow gifts. The shop is also full of interesting non-generic greetings cards. I spotted about 5 which I am planning to buy for people's birthdays. The gift shop adds an extra place in the West end to shop local. The cafe section is small but an welcome addition. We opted for a chemex for 2 as well as a slice of jaffa cake cheesecake to share. They get their cheesecake from The Artisan Cheesecake company based in Bathgate, which a firm favourite with a work colleague. The cheesecake was well worth it and was beautiful. However I would recommend sharing as it is really sweet. The coffee was delicious and I was so happy with our chemex as it meant I had more coffee to look forward to. I think I will definitely be heading here again for their coffee/cheesecake/shop/post office.

As for the post office itself? Well, it gets three stars because of its friendly staff. In actual fact it's rather irritatingly shoehorned into a small RS McColl's meaning it's a complete nightmare to queue in. For that reason, you should really do your best to visit at less popular times. And preferably in the school holidays.
