An odd little shop with a modern post office hidden in the back, the shop supplies a few news…read morepapers, a big selection of children's colouring books and lotto. Very hard to see how places like this survive but they do and we should all make an effort to use them on occasion to keep them in business, you never know when you'll be stuck for a 3 Euro box of chocolate fingers!

For someone new to the area. The owner of the shop very aggressive and rude, didn't like me from…read morethe moment I stepped in to post parcels. Screamed and said rude comments to me and my kids. And when I stood up for myself I was refused service even though I came in just to post not to do anything wrong. Never been so uncomfortable and treated like a dog still shocked. Such a shame as Monkstown is such a friendly area.

I was in this post office for the first time yesterday. I expected it to be nice as it looks well…read morefrom the outside. I was shocked first at the horrible stale smell in the air. The counter tops were grimy and disgusting, looking as if they had NEVER been cleaned - both over at the window and the service area. One of the staff was leaning back on his chair with a mug of tea in his hand and as he lowered his chair he gave a big open yawn without covering his mouth just as I was approaching the counter. I went to the woman beside him, who was pleasant and helpful. She gets the 1 star. This place needs a really good clean and some members of staff need a talk on professionalism! i see it's a ling time since a review has been posted.

Even when wiring money home, I am in and out in five minutes. Add to that all the staff are ridiculously nice. WHAAAAAT!?! Hard to believe, I know. But it is true. I wouldn't want to invite them for tea or anything, but still they make it so going to the post office isn't an absolute horror show. I didn't give it five stars because it is still a post office.

It has now become my mission in life to see out unusual post offices... I didn't even know there…read morewas such a thing until recently but now that I know what to look for I am finding them everywhere. Here in Deans grange is a card & gift shop with a post office right in the middle of it... which makes sense when you need to send something to a loved one but have left it till last post the day before the special occasion .... There's a whole wife and anniversary joke here somewhere but damned if I can put it together. The shop is hallmark so funnily enough there are lost of 'cutesy' cards and cuddly toys and also a stationary section. The staff are friendly which you'd expect in a hallmark shop!
