Unsworth Post Office is a great local Post Office for the Unsworth area of Bury, it is not a crown…read morePost Office, being located inside Berrys of Unsworth, which appears to be some sort of Deli/Vape Store, but centred around the Post Office. The staff are friendly here, and despite having just one staff member working at the time of my visit, she appeared to be very fast and efficient and got customers in and out quickly with a good level of service and knowledge. While I would have preferred at least two clerks working and/or the self-service postage machines, it is certainly ample for a smaller Post Office in this location. There is both street parking nearby and a small parking lot, however, the latter is shared by other nearby businesses on Parr Lane so it rarely has spaces. I would also advise you to plan your visit outside of school hours, due to the proximity to the nearby school, the area can become a little unpleasant. 4*

Railway Road Post Office is the closest Post Office currently open in Leigh town centre (The branch…read moreinside Spinning Gate Shopping Centre remains closed during the UK government lockdown as it is inside a Ryman store), it is a short walk away from the town's main shopping area and bus station. It feels like the priority is making it a newsagent first with some overpriced items, rather than a Post Office, the store feels cramped and not very pleasant. The store doesn't offer as many facilities as a larger Post Office, but you can still withdraw and deposit cash into your bank account, and post parcels. I'm glad this store is open on Sunday's as that's the most useful place about this Post Office, I do think they shut a little early at 5 pm during the week, closing half an hour earlier on Saturday's and another half an hour early on Sunday's again. There isn't a Post Box outside which is a little annoying. I wish the Post Office in the town centre would open again, as this location is less than ideal, I also don't think the service is as throughout or professional as you'd get from a Crown Post Office or even one located inside another store.

The sub post office on Railway road in Leigh is situated half way down Railway road in Leigh on a…read morecorner position. There are car parks around the town which are pay and display and a good bus service, also you can park for up to 30/40 mins on Railway Road in the designated spaces. The shop front is attractive and clean and clearly displays the post office logo. The window displays are relevant and attractive. Inside the shop is clean, spacious and well maintained. There is a photocopier for use at a small cost and cards, sweets, small gifts and packaging products etc are available at a reasonable cost. The counter is at the rear of the shop and offers a good range of services, it is always well staffed and is a very popular post office that is very much appreciated in the area. The staff are very helpful, friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. The post office is serving the local community well and we are very fortunate to have it as the main post office in Leigh can be a trek and quite busy. One of my favourite post offices I can Highly Recommend Railway Road Post Office in Leigh.

Neston Post Office is situated right in the centre of Neston, adjacent to the Town Hall. It offers…read morea range of cards, stationery, specialised stationery (such as padded and large envelopes), and over the counter services like PayPoint, Car Tax renewal and deals with large parcels. The post office itself is quite small and at busy times it can be cramped. They have 4 cashier points, but I've rarely seen more than 2 members of staff serving at busy times. The last collection time at the post box outside is 5pm (if you miss it, wizz down to West Vale Shops, as the collection there is 5:30pm.) Opening hours are: Mon-Fri 9am-5.30pm Sat 9am-12:30pm Sunday- Closed.

Shudehill Post Office is in a great location if you're heading into Manchester city centre via…read moreRochdale Road and/or using Shudehill Interchange, being located next to Cafe North on Shudehill. It is housed as part of a Manchester Souvenirs and News store. When the Post Office first opened, I noticed a lot of teething issues, such as being closed during opening hours or the staff being poorly trained to deal with basic services such as posting letters, however, since then, they've improved. With the main Crown Post Office closing on Spring Gardens, this store has done a good job in preparing their staff for the closure with extra support and training, yet I do feel there is more to do - there is regularly only one staff member working the Post Office, even at busy times. I understand being just a counter as part of a larger newsagents, it is difficult to find the space, but it would be great if they could reduce the waiting times, or perhaps even install the self-service machines, similar to what we see at other Post Office locations. They are open until 18:00 with the last collection for mail during the week at around 17:15 - this is pretty standard for a Post Office, however there are many other nearby Post Offices open later with Deansgate closing at 21:30 and Arndale closing at 23:00 during the week. I'm not a big fan of the newsagents which generally sell overpriced drinks and cheap tat/souvenirs, however, the staff are generally friendly and the location is especially handy for me as I don't need to carry larger parcels into and around town after getting off the bus at Shudehill. 3*

It's also one of the easiest for parking -- if you can't park on the little lay-by by the Post Office itself, turn quick right before the Beehive roundabout and you'll be able to find somewhere that doesn't annoy the neighbours. In short, the owners do a great job here and deserve our support.
