I try to avoid this post office at all costs! Firstly let me…read moretell you the good points - it's very central, reasonably close to Sainsbury's and closer to the co-op. It serves the majority of Kempston well. There are usually about 2 or 3 people working at the same time which is good Swiftly onto the bad points - I have NEVER seen this post office without a queue, it's not rare if I have to stand in the queue for 15 minutes (even with 3 people serving) - whilst worrying about where I parked the car as there is only space for around 3 cars out the front.

Whenever I have sent parcels from this post office they have got to their destination so I have never had any bother with that. Parking is often a problem with space for 4 cars. Other than that, you have to park in a side street which isn't too bad!

Small and sweet, with friendly staff and a basic selection of essentials that you can buy.read more
