The building was neat! and we got to go downstairs to eat which was cool. When we sat down, we were greeted immediately. Our server was super sweet. We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip & a burger! I wasn't really impressed with the food, if i come back i will order something else for sure. My boyfriend and I got the bread pudding to go.. it was amazing, do NOT pass up on the bread pudding here for sure! I would seriously come here just for the bread pudding. My second time coming here: I can never check in here or anything on yelp because I have zero service :( The service is amazing , seriously the best We got the duck tenders as an app, they were really tender but the meat and the batter they fry it in is absolutely flavorless! Next we got the French dip sandwich. The quality of the meat was great, I didn't get any fatty pieces and the meat was perfectly sliced. Not too think and not too thick. But....... No flavor. I feel like I'm repeating myself... The loaded fries were the best thing I have had. The blue cheese is a little much because the fries are already so salty and so is the bacon. Plus I feel like the melted cheese, bacon, and fresh chives all have bold flavor. So if I was to pick a cheese to crumble on top, I would pick one that's less subtle. Again, we got the bread pudding and I wish I would've just had that and just that all along, it was amazing. But I can't justify driving 37 minutes for bread pudding read more

Very nice place, I was impressed that this was a really post office, the decor and the art is impressive. Good food (with a cajun touch), excellent music for my taste and superb sound quality. But let's face it, when a Waitress pronounces "beer" and "one dollar" instantly makes sense to you, In this case the Waitress misunderstood the promotion and I ended paying the regular amount @ $4.00. Not my kind of ending. read more

Overall customer service was very attentive. Music and lighting exceptional. Intimate and soft setting. We came visiting family day after Christmas. Low foot traffic. My wife had the burger and it was on the salty side. Homemade fries were descent. I had the surf and turf. Steak was exceptionally cooked with the sauce covering the veggies and steak. The down side was the mashed potatoes. Overly salty and peppery. Overall experience 4 stars read more

Phenomenal steak and shrimp! I've been on travel for almost a week and this has been hands down the best meal!!!

Wow! This place was so charming and exceeded my expectations. Great wait staff. The food...was awesome! I had the blackened chicken and the BEST fried okra ever! Would definitely plan on going there again. read more

A must-visit if you are in the Camden/El Dorado area. Beautifully restored and redesigned building with interesting art and artifacts all around. The staff is friendly, funny, and well-educated about the menu choices. Wide selection of beers, including some local choices. The food is outstanding. The bread pudding should be illegal it's so good. read more

What an unexpected treat! Came in on a Friday night with a party of ten 30 minutes before closing which is always a test of the staff's resolve and skill. Needless to say, they absolutely exceeded expectations and delivered a great meal. To begin, I was very surprised by the content and diversity of the menu as it looked like something you would see in a major metro area and not small-town Southern Arkansas. The menu was apparently brand spanking new but it showed some very thoughtful choices and had a range of dishes in terms of both price and sophistication that satisfied everyone in our admittedly selective party. The wine list was also very thoughtfully selected with some fairly brave choices that showed me that someone put in some time and tasting to offer a very broad spectrum to choose from. I ordered the Pork Porterhouse which was risky as it's pretty easy to screw up pork on the grill. However, I should not have worried as the cut was perfectly brined, cooked to perfection (medium-anything more would be a crime), sauced deliciously, and the sides were also cooked just right. The grilled asparagus still had some snap but also had the woody char you want to see when it's grilled. I also had a chance to try a bit of one of my family members' Petite Filet and it was also cooked perfectly to medium rare and had that lovely buttery consistency that a properly seared filet will have when it was prepared with skill and care. We were all too beat to sample dessert but this is an excellent place to dine that stacks up with first tier restaurants I have enjoyed in major cities across the country. Lucky you, Camden, you have a gem downtown! read more

Came here for our nephew's rehearsal dinner on the patio. Excellent food - jambalaya, gumbo, turkey sliders, muffulettas, beignets, and praline pecan pie. All were wonderful and the service was great. It was a buffet but the servers took care of us like we were leaving a tip ourselves! Recommend this place!! read more

I'm from Fort Worth visiting friends we ate at the post master last night. We started off with the calamari which was very good. I had the small filet cooked it was not what I consider small especially for the pice. It had amazing tenderness, juiciness, flavor and fine texture. They have a nice selection of alcohol and a nice array of beer. We sampled a bottle of wine which came complete with the correct glass. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone! read more

I was in Camden for two weeks on business so I ate here quite a bit. First of all, it's an awesome building. They did a great job remodeling it and created a really cool space for eating. My first night I had the sriracha chicken, which was actually one of the best meals I have had in a really long time. Great heat, great flavor, perfect portion and presentation. A total winner all around. My colleague had the razorback, which I tasted and quite liked. Another night though, I had the french dip, which was just blah. The meat tasted boiled and the au jus tasted like water. The bread was nice and the soup that came with it was great. I would steer clear of the french dip until they revisit it. It's the only reason I gave it four instead of five stars. Best place in Camden hands down. read more

A real gem in south Arkansas. An original post office from 1900 beautifully remodeled and is something you would expect to see in a more urban area. I have sampled a good portion of the menu and have never been disappointed. My current favorite is the spinach salad with blackened shrimp added. The staff is friendly and attentive which ties everything together to make for a wonderful dining experience. Do not leave this restaurant without trying the bread pudding - the best I have ever had. read more

The best place to eat in Camden. The ingredients and the presentation of the food are excellent. Set in an old Post Office, the atmosphere is truly original. read more

We came about 15 minutes before closing, but with the service and food, you'd never know it. Not only was the food delicious, it was worth the price. The servers worked as a team, going out of their way to ensure my wife and I were happy and my 1-year-old daughter had a happy time. We plan to go back often! read more

Probley the best place in town. Good food cool building. However if this place was in a big city it would be just average.

My husband and I really enjoyed the food, service, and atmosphere of Postmaster's Grill! Although it may be a little high for a small town such as Camden, it it Definitely worth it. read more

We stopped in on a Thursday night and sat downstairs. Great part of this old post office, remodeled with a full bar and tables. The dinner was amazing! Service was awesome and attentive, but not overly so! The next night we had 45 guests on the main floor for a rehearsal dinner. Once again, everyone was thrilled with the food choices and the service, even for that many people, was amazing. Do not pass up an opportunity to visit this place! The hand cut filet and the Creole pasta were awesome. read more

This was my first trip here and I am not sure I will return. Cold food that had to be returned. No drink refills, dessert (cobbler) cold and not served as ordered. Waited 2 1/2 hours for food that was not up to the reviews listed. When we asked our waiter for explanations as to why we had been ignored his (casey) reply was "we got hammered....how do you want your bill?" Sandbar is far better!! read more

Amazing food. Ambiance was great. Loved the fried duck. Had the blackened grilled chicken and it was incredible.

Our visit last evening exceeded our expectations and we were delighted to be back to this iconic restoration in the heart of Camden. We were greeted immediately upon arriving which was good but the communication was somewhat fumbled as the host wasn't a stellar listener. We love the downstairs pub atmosphere. Our service was excellent and the specialty cocktails were superior. The food was just right for us and I recommend the duck tenders and fried green tomato appetizers. The atmosphere here is relaxed and the people are pleasant. I can't imagine us driving 90 miles (or flying in like we did for this visit) and eating anywhere but here. I would rate this a 4.5 out of 5, but am saving my five ratings for the near perfect visits. BTW.....I should mention the high level of CLEANLINESS that we always find on our visits here. The owner obviously has some high standards! read more

Never would've imagined a 5-star restaurant in Camden Arkansas, but that's exactly what you get when you visit Postmasters Grill! From the ambiance, service, wine/bar selections and the menu.., 5-star across the board! They even have entertainment on occasion. You can go downstairs to the bar area for a laid back chill atmosphere, but if you want something a little more elegant you can dine upstairs. They even have an outside area. If you are ever in the Camden area stop in and treat yourself to Camden's treasure. Oh, and be sure to tell them "Marla" sent you! read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. Call one day in advance for a reservation, no reservation when we arrived. Hostess, Whitney, not nice or seemingly not wanting to be helpful, much less apologize. After one hour and 30 minutes, having only received two small salads, one glass of ice tea ( long gone ) one Glass of wine, and one glass of water ( asked four times for a straw for my water, we which I never got ) and our food delivered wrong and cold, having asked our server to find out how much longer for food, which after 15 minutes and he never returned, we left 20 dollars on our table and left. My sister is in chemotherapy treatment and not able to wait for a table, hence the reservation, but I didn't want to embarrass my sister and try to explain that to Whitney. And this is not the first time I had a bad experience, the only other time I have tried to eat here, they lost our food order, and then they we're out of what we had ordered! Waited over an hour that time and no food again. Would you recommend this restaurant? Would you ever go back? read more

This restaurant is located in a gorgeously preserved 1898 post office in downtown Camden. Parking out front is easy and the staff are very friendly. We ate downstairs in the bar area for dinner. There is a sit down space on the ground floor but it appears to be reserved for special events or perhaps larger crowds. The food style is Cajun. My wife and I shared a muffeleta and a big serving of jumbalaya. The sandwich came with roasted sweet potato chips. While not up to New Orleans standards, we felt the food was right on target, except for the chips. They were only warm, not hot or cold--either of which would have been better. I ordered an Abita Root Beer (from Abita Springs in Louisiana) which was outstanding and my wife enjoyed a well prepared white chocolate bread pudding for dessert. For the price, this was a really good meal for an out of the way location. Camden was a thriving industrial town until about 12 years ago or so, when International Paper pulled the plug on the local factory. It is now pretty desolate, although there are many old baeutiful homes here. read more

We were there during the daffodil festival a few weeks ago and ate lunch at the Postmaster Grill. With sandwiches you get a choice of fries or French onion soup. I chose the soup. Every recipe that I have ever seen for French onion soup, and every time I have ever had it, it included soup, cheese and bread on top. When I got my bill I noticed a $1.50 charge that I asked the waitress what it was for. She said that they charge extra for the cheese and she thought I might want it, so she had it added. I'm still amazed at that, but otherwise our food was ok. I guess I've learned not to assume anything! read more

This is a WINNER! Recommended highly by the hotel manager where I stayed, I dined in the bar area, which was small but a great upscale atmosphere. Nice oak wood hIghbar chairs and 4-12 seater table sizes; not expected in a small town like Camden. I wanted the soup of the day, the cheddar ale, but was determined to be sold out. My server was very fast, and efficient, but kinda lacked personality I would hope to find in a place this high caliber. I decided on the French onion soup, which reminded me of the old Steak & Ale recipe, which was really stout, like it should be. The entrée was FANTASTIC! Creole pasta with smoked chicken, andouille sausage and spicy creole style cream sauce. It also includes gulf shrimp, but I asked to have in removed due to a mild allergy. They gladly accommodated. The hotel manager specifically recommended the white chocolate bread pudding, so even though I was pretty much stuffed, I had to give it a fair shake. Good flavor and really rich! I'll definitely be back! read more

Loved the shrimp and grits. The restoration of this building is incredible! Thank you for a wonderful evening!

Charming setting. Outstanding food. Very personable service. Traveling through the state and found this surprising, fresh, divine food. We ordered petite filet mignon and it melted in our mouths. Wow! We didn't expect to find such a high quality restaurant in such a fun, cool settling. The place was packed! We will come back next time when doing business in this area. read more

So glad this place opened up in Camden. I have never not liked my food here. The dishes are always delicious and always something unique. I've had their petite steak, rabbit pot pie, goat cheese ravioli and so much more. All of them have been excellent, my favorite though is their salmon with risotto. It's just so yummy that I always end up ordering it. Their bar (which is separate from their elegant dining room) is also a one of a kind. Great drinks, great menu and a great atmosphere. YOU NEED TO GO HERE! read more

Landed in Camden at the local airport out of daylight and tired...no plans, no reservations and not afraid of either. Secured a room at the Holiday Inn Express and the manager retrieved us and had made reservations at the Postmaster Grill. Emily (propritor) pick us up and dropped us back off at the hotel. Great menu, very expansive (not expensive) and bar. The building used to be the post office with original construction in the late 1800's and a couple of additions afterward. Terrific job of converting into a restraunt while maintaining the original architectural ambiance. Nice treat all the way around and I will now make it a stop when travelling through the area. read more
