Since the local post office cuts in Brighton, it's nice to see that they kept at least one on Lewes road. I used to do a lot of selling on EBay, so always had packages and parcels to ship off to various places in the world. I always used this post office to send my goods.
They have a lot of packaging items (bubble wrap bags etc) on sale which is really handy if you are sending an item. Whilst there are two post office counters out back you can expect a fairly long wait if you catch them at the wrong time of day. That being said, the staff are efficient and knowledgeable about all post office related processes.
The shop is quite handy as well if you need random stationary, birthday cards or suchlike. As well as the expected sweets, drinks, crisps and tobacco products of a newsagent they have a limited selection of tinned food if you need the odd item.
There is a corner shop vibe to the place which I like because it's not just a 9-5 job for the staff but their family business. This seems to come out in the service you receive and I would prefer to give my custom to these guys any day of the week. read more
