    I go here quite a bit. Prices are much better than other vendors for boxes like Priority mail. I find the agents to be very patient with the elderly who come in for a chat. They will propose cheaper mailing options when available. Construction workers and folks who work in other buildings do clog the parking lot, as the USPS doesn't seem to enforce the restrictions (they might incur nasty reviews!). I always keep a roll of tape in my car, and a pen in my pocket, as it holds up everyone when you don't properly prepare your mailing. I gave just 4 stars because parking will remain an issue.

    I find the staff at the McLean post office on Elm Street always pleasant and efficient.

    I came in within the last 20 minutes before closing I honestly was expecting a long line.

    This is an adorably quaint post office housed in a converted house in historic Glen Echo. It has…read morealmost a Norman Rockwell-esque feel to it (am I dating Ng myself) in that it literally morphs in your view to a watercolor postcard done in light wash, it's that perfect. It's tiny. If you go, more likely than not there will be a line. BUT the clerks are almost always wonderfully pleasant, patient and helpful, and most patrons are likewise. I love this post office and almost always go here to buy stamps or send packages just because it is so much more chill.

    This unequivocally was the best post office experience I've ever had. The woman behind the counter…read morewas so customer service oriented, sweet, nice, and funny that I just can't wait to go back. She struck up a conversation about what I was sending out, we chatted about vintage crates, decor, and her mom (I believe it was) helping her decorate her apartment. She was saying how she doesn't really have the eye for that sort of stuff. I told her... always mix materials and old and new things. That will always add a nice warmth to a space. In any event, she was just so pleasant and friendly. I was headed to the airport and needed to use a restroom before I sat in traffic for like an hour on my way. I kinda was like... "hey... you guys don't have a public restroom in here do you?" I mean... I was 99 percent ready to hear a "no". And she said, hey yeah I can let you use our restroom as long you don't make a mess, kill anyone, or do drugs in there. She was joking obviously. I laughed heartily and she escorted me back. What a kind gesture to let me use their employee restroom. Anyways, I had no idea this post office was here. It's quite tucked into a neighborhood in Glen Echo. When the GPS told me to turn, I almost did not thinking that it must be the wrong street. It's like you're turning into a residential area, and there's a historic building with a post office in it. And how often do you get a friendly post office employee btw? I'm sorry, I don't like to generalize, but I think that might be a first. In fact, my next review might be of the post office behind the home depot across from Montgomery Mall where the post worker yelled at me when I asked him if that was "really the cheapest way to send my post." Le sigh. Might have to make a trip out of my way to get to this B.
