This post office has now closed and it's moved inside a local convenience store with the regular staff serving both the shop and the post office desk.
Old review:
Brotton Post Office is on the high street so it's very easy to get to and has a post box outside for when it's not open.
There's a ramp inside so it's easily accessable.
It can get quite busy sometimes but you never have to queue for long.
They sell birthday cards, wrapping paper, envelopes, small toys and a few other bits & bobs as well as the usual post office stuff.
The staff are REALLY nice and will do all they can to help you: they're even happy to help 'difficult' customers (like me!) who post over 10 parcels at once (e.g. at Christmas and when selling on eBay).
If you do have a lot of parcels to be weighed then they're happy for you to leave them there then go back later to pay for them all.
I couldn't wish for a better local post office! read more
