It's a little shop as well, so you can pick up essential groceries (such as chocolate) while you're there. There's parking available at the front although it can be a little awkward as it's on a main junction but generally people will let you through (there's keep clear signs on the road, but they're often ignored). This is only minutes from Robin Hood Airport so it's handy for any last minute essentials before you fly.

A lovely little post office in a beautiful village just outside Doncaster, close to the airport. It…read moreis owned and run by a couple who know just about everyone in the village and they always have time to talk to everybody who calls in. As well as postal services they sell the usual range of cards and stationery they sell milk, bread and eggs - handy as there isn't another shop in the village. Only complaint is the eggs - I think they're under the impression that because the box says 'fresh' they're free range. They're not! Other than the egg problem my only minor niggle is that there isn't a lot of space and service can sometimes be a little slow, but that all adds to the charm of the place. I'd recommend using it to anyone passing that neck of the woods.

The Post Office and KeyStore convenience store and newsagents has recently changed hands, much to applause of the local community. The new owners are family run and are friendly and polite. The store is in the middle of updating. The new owner ran Better Butties on Denison road that had a great reputation for quality take-away hot and cold snacks and sandwiches. Within the Post Office & KeyStore there are two Post Office counters; a fair sized general store, with freezer cabinets and fridges for fresh food. Hot pies and pasties are sold at lunchtime with the introduction of Hot sandwiches and salads in the future.

Although it is a busy road, normally it isn't too difficult to find a space. I recently had quite a difficult transaction to carry out, but the lady who served me knew her stuff, and I managed without any problems. I'd therefore recommend using this Post Office if you're in the area.

Be careful as tickets are often issued! The post office has two counters and although small caters for the locals needs. There is a convenience shop with the post office that offers an extensive range of foods. You can find all your basics like bread, spuds, eggs and milk as well as fresh foods. There is a wide range of magazines and comics for the children and a couple of freezer cabinets and chilled counters too. Local papers and magazines can be delivered from this Post Office. The staff are friendly.

I'm giving it 2 stars: one as it's clean and tidy, the second because it's usually quiet. But there's a reason for this: I reckon that people are too scared to go there! I know I am. I was as good as told I was lying when I had already written the weight on my customs label (How do I know you've written the correct weight on it? Why wouldn't I?!!!) and I got a right telling off too for taking something off the scales too soon. Perhaps slightly paranoid as it is beside a prison and they're under the impression everyone is a criminalwho knows! Give it a go if you're on the A614 and need to post something, but be warnedthey might shout at you!!!

Crown Post Offices are a dying breed now - it seems almost every Post Office is now becoming a…read moresmall kiosk in a newsagents or similar style store, this is one of the few good remaining Post Offices remaining. This is a large branch, on Spring Gardens which is just off Market Street. It has a ticketed queuing approach, where you get a ticket and wait for them to call your number, I much prefer this to the standard queuing as it means you can sit down, relax without squabbling over your place in the queue. There is also a good number of self-service postage machines (These are great but not ideal as they don't include all services such as if the postage is pre-paid). The staff here are pretty friendly and service is quick enough, this is a huge benefit over the smaller Post Offices around the city centre located in Manchester Souvenirs and News stores, as it can be hit and miss whether you get served quickly or not - the staff always seem to take more care at this location too. It can be cheaper to pre-pay your postage online depending on the service being used. I don't understand the logic behind this, especially if you have to visit a Post Office anyway to post the parcel and/or generate proof of posting. 4* - A very good Post Office location, yet working on transparency between pricing through all payment methods and adding services to the self-service postage machines to make it quicker, and confusion-free would be a huge improvement again.

Hell hath no fury like central Manchester in the office lunch hour. I despair, I really do. And…read moreoften I found myself here having to post things off while I was working at Spinningfields, so once I'd jostled through the crowds the last thing I wanted was apocalyptic queues whilst standing like a lemon with my parcel. Thankfully, this is a particularly large post office. It sells what you'd expect - envelopes, stationery, stamps, the works, but with a great many kiosks it means you're never waiting a ludicrously long time to get rid of your items. The staff are helpful too, I was talked through the ins and outs of how many stamps I should put on a card to enable it to reach Fuerteventura, for instance. Its location just next to the Tesco Metro makes it a very handy stopping off point if you happen to be in town. I worked this out when I had to head here today to post off a box and a letter, both recorded delivery. I'm around a mile from a Post Office, no matter what direction I walk in. The shop opposite my apartment building closed down a long time ago, and now I'm at the mercy of Mocha Parade (gimme me flamin' giro), Soviet, sorry, Salford Precinct (Gorky Park) and this. This is my default. I'd like to take a moment to announce that I'm a dumbass as well. Ticket systems? Lost on me. I become like a doddering old grandmother that's been handed an iPod for the first time. Don't worry, this happens at cheese counters and in hospital queues too. Small ballots of paper bewilder me. Anyway, I realised that I shouldn't have sauntered past the friendly-looking bloke stood next to the ominous looking machine. And the lady who handled my parcels was super friendly. It's quick and easy. Worth a visit if you're parcel-sending this Christmas. Although by now you're probably too late... sorry, there was no need for that. I reckon you are though. Okay, I promise, I'll stop now.
