Still a post office girl! I don't come here often, but on occasion, this is my go to location. Whenever I'm here I also check out their latest and greatest stamps. I love getting the gorgeous floral stamps or really cute animal series. A book of stamps is getting expensive tho, just over $15. This location is convenient and open late on Saturdays until 4 pm which is great! You don't have to rush to get here before noon or 2 pm if you need to get something done at the counter with a real person. They have a small parking lot. If it's full, there's also street parking, but usually there are a ton of cars in the street. Staff is always friendly here. No automated services at this location. 2026: 28 read more

The PO Box hours are absolutely ridiculous. It's an old fashioned, tiny USPS. The staff is mostly courteous, and way better than most USPS offices. They are on serious island time, like every single other post office. There are almost ZERO bathroom options in this entire area, so plan accordingly. I feel like my temporary PO box was reasonably priced. Parking lot is a huge pain. If I can, I try to park on the street and run in. read more

US Post Office - The PO box hours are ridiculous! Have not been able to get to my Mail in two weeks! - Post Offices Near Me - San Diego, California

Postal services in San Diego, California... We saw this Post Office across the street from where we were having brunch - and drove over. The parking lot is cozy, but functional... One way in and one way out. Service was friendly and efficient. I gave my post cards to the clerk and left. No problem! It was a convenient location and easy experience! read more

Kind of a sad little building. The place is wall to wall PO Boxes. It seems like there is only 2 people who can work there at a time, not sure how another would fit. It's kind of shockingly small for the area it services. read more

US Post Office - Outside - Post Offices Near Me - San Diego, California

Super nice people and very cool architecture that looks like stuck in the 60s. I like when the old post offices remain old and active and do not adapt to modern times (at least architectonically). I am rarely in this neighborhood but needed to ship something for an eBay client and had the package for some days in my car and I just happened to be around. Very fast service, looks like it is not very busy office. As others have commented, the friendliness of the people in this office (especially the guy who looks like Pacific islander who helped me) was very welcoming. I liked the vibe. I even had conversation with someone waiting to ship something too, like in those neighborhoods where everyone knows each other. read more

The drivers they hire are not all there in the head. That or they just don't want to do their jobs. I had a package that said it was out for delivery from this office, then randomly the next day it's in their Coronado location being processed again. And again the next morning at this San Diego location saying out for delivery. Well sure enough that next morning it's back in Coronado "moving through the network". Nobody has a clue on the phones what is going on or how I can get help. It's pretty much just a loss at this point. But because they keep moving it around the company I ordered it from won't process me a refund since it technically hasn't been "delivered or undelivered". Please figure your shit out. There's no reason 1 package should be going to the same post office 3 times now. (I've also never had issues at this address or with any other company delivering) read more

Note that the post office is not in the same parking lot as Bear Buns Bakery but just next door. I have never witnessed a more pleasant post office exchange. The clerk at the desk was so friendly. It was 8am on Tuesday and there was only one clerk out front but she had the biggest smile across her face. A mom came in with her son and she joked and asked if he was playing hooky. The little boy didn't even know what that meant. Mom said school starts late now and they were on their way. The clerk was happy to hear that and positively encouraged him to work hard and stay in school. It was a cute little exchange and brought in a little humanity that's so often missing in our daily interactions! When I got to her, I got the same joy, smiles and positivity! read more

Very hard to park! But once you manage to get inside it is cozy with a Christmas in Hawaii feel where they tried to decorate for Christmas and have the high ceiling and fans. Employees very nice. read more

For a post office this place is great!! Excellent customer service. I almost grabbed an express envelope to mail my package and a postal worker stopped and made sure that's what I wanted before I prepared it all. She helped me find a box that would fit what I was mailing and stated she can reinforce it if it needed it. Excellent!! This is gonna be my go to post office from here on out!!! read more

I came here to drop off two packages that already had paid shipping labels on them. There was no line and I asked the male worker for a receipt. He was locking the door and when he heard me he just completely ignored me and scoffed and didn't say a word. Apparently the post office was about to close but I did not know that since I had taken my time to prepare my packages. He could have told me that rather than behave in such a rude and disrespectful way. I decided to walk out without a receipt. This is not behavior that is professional or acceptable to receive from an adult. I do not recommend this post office and I recommend you go somewhere else. read more

People working here are nice, knowledgeable and friendly. It's a small neighborhood post office that doesn't seem too busy and is easy to pop in with short lines. read more

US Post Office - Entrance from parking lot - Post Offices Near Me - San Diego, California

I have a soft spot for this post office. I regularly buy things internationally and oftentimes the sellers will use EMS or registered mail. I prefer not to use EMS these days due to the pandemic, but sometimes I don't have a choice. Part of the reason I don't like using EMS and registered mail is because the customs procedure is slower and worse than other couriers like DHL or FedEx. Thanks to ISC/customs I've already lost one package and others I've had to wait several weeks. Ugh. Anyway, whenever I've had an issue with one of my international packages, the manager here has always been super nice and helpful. Also everyone who works here has always been nice, too! I am kinda sad I moved away from this area because I'm having an issue with another international package and I'll have to speak with a different post office. This is definitely one of the better post offices I've been to. read more

Updating my review to four stars. Though there was only one individual working at the counter during my visit, he was clearly trying his best to help customers as efficiently as possible while maintaining a friendly disposition. Now that the holidays are over, the queue was far shorter as well. read more

Came to ship a package it was fast service and very friendly staff overall. Thank you guys !

I love this post office and friendly staff. I think that they're incredibly diligent on getting things done - despite the couple packages that have been lost or delayed in the past, I still have faith and trust that they get things done. I always am happy to see my regular postman and think that they've been dealing with COVID-19 incredibly well, just need to figure out a better system so that there wouldn't be such a long line when people are waiting to drop off. Other than that, love the staff. read more

Came on a weekend morning. No line. We were helped immediately at the counter. Mailing our package was easy and quick. The woman scanned our return label on our phone for our internet equipment return. Our internet provider covered the shipping cost. read more

This is the best post office in San Diego county. The way they follow up with you to make sure you received your lost package is so reassuring!! The sender had written the wrong suite number so I had to go search the building where I work. Sherry made sure to check with mail carrier and call me to let me know where it was! You guys are always welcome to come in to our dental office! Serra Mesa Smiles at coast medical building! Thank you so much!!! read more

On 10/31/23, at around 830am to 840am, the clerk (light complexion, large set with tattoos on their arms) was rude and unprofessional and made me drop off a package in the middle of the desk and did not ask me for ID or anything. I do not know if my package was safely scanned and put in for delivery. Can you please have a manager ensure my package is safe and secure. I will get authorities involved if this does not happen. read more

No one answered the phone called 2 times only ringing even called the 1 800 hold only then hanging up.

Best post office in San Diego. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Always neat and organized.

No one bothers to answer phone during business hours...today I let the phone ring for 3.5 minutes. No VM reply available. Where is everyone? read more

Love this post office and it is conveniently located down the street from my house. Every time I have gone here, there has been parking and the employees are all so helpful. Even when the line is near the door, its not that long of a wait. If you are just dropping off boxes with labels, they just take it at the front without you standing in line. read more

US Post Office - Post Offices Near Me - San Diego, California

This post office has been around a while indeed and it does not have have a automated stamp machine nor weighing station, but in the end, it served it purpose. I stopped to buy a booklet of forever stamps and I had to go to the counter. I liked the American flag ones, so I went for those (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/us-post-office-serra-mesa-san-diego?select=osTYgoUpCz3c41Oz6gQdug#BLa_fRRp5qJ5vuZk72W-QQ). The older lady who helped me at the counter was very nice. I asked he about the ATM type stamp machine and she joked how those machines would probably take over their jobs, and she's probably right too. Well, this post office carries all your shipping and packing needs with good friendly service. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/us-post-office-serra-mesa-san-diego?select=osTYgoUpCz3c41Oz6gQdug#FRgJly6-rVm5LcenuV-P-w) Nice Post Office. read more

Idk if it was the time I came in to drop off a package (around 1130am) but it was quite empty so it was a super quick visit! Staff was super friendly and maybe they were training a new hire but they all greeted me upon my entry! It's nice to see all their smiling faces. A quick but pleasant visit! read more

Over a year ago during the Christmas holidays I went in with a bunch of gifts which I put into various boxes there to send. When I go to the post office to mail holiday gifts, I an super organized; I bring the gifts presorted in separate bags, with labels written out ahead of time as well as scissors, tape, and stuffing in case I need any of that. The woman at the desk asked me to take the tape that I brought with me and was in my purse out of my purse and tried to charge me for it. I asked her why she was asking me to show her something I brought with me. She accused me of taking the tape from there and lying about it, neither of which was true. i took the remainder of my Christmas gifts over the next few days to other post offices after that, and told them about what happened, as no other post office acts like that. it was upsetting to me. Fast forward to September 2023, yesterday I had to mail documents back to a law office I work with as well as a book I was sending to a friend of mine as a gift. Again, I prepared all the documents in a bin along with labels, tape, stuffing. Then when I arrived I packaged the two boxes of documents and taped them up and put on the labels, then put the gift into one of their gift envelopes. WhenI got to the counter, the same woman asked me to take the tape out of my purse so she could charge me for it. I told her that I brought the tape from home, and that no other post office does this. She said it was necessary , whatever that means. So if you want to be accused of being a thief and a liar, go to this post office! Terrible customer service and this person apparently thinks she is in law enforcement, although she is not very good at it. read more

This post office has been here for eons and not much has changed. Very small but gets good amount of traffic that goes through. Staff is very friendly and efficient. Line goes pretty quick but can sometimes end up outside the building at busy hours. I tend to go mid-afternoon to avoid the long lines. read more

This US post office is very kind and quick!! I'm so glad to find good post office for sending my package . Thank you so much! read more

I've actually had great experiences here. I came once right around Christmas and I thought they closed later. They let me in and let me ship my package. My gifts made it home just in time for Christmas. They also helped me tape my box. I haven't had a rude employee interaction here. Everyone has been very friendly to me. I will admit this location could use a face lift. It is a bit out dated but I guess the same could be said about most government buildings. Having the stamp machine would be very beneficial especially when the lines are long and all you need is a stamp. I also try to avoid the near 5pm crowd. read more

Went to the location that it is posted on Yelp. When I arrived it was no where to be found. I don't know if it was removed from that location or the location is wrong on Yelp, but I wasted my time going there, and ended up having to go and find another one nearby. read more

All government buildings get a bad wrap.... and sometimes, unfairly so.... the post office is no exception. However, I can't do anything but sing the praise of this place... though often times crowded, the employees do well to get through the line fairly quickly and always clarify answers to your questions. I don't think i've met a more friendly and upbeat group of postal workers.... I'm looking into getting a P.O. Box here and they have a good deal available on a good selection of sizes. Though the venue itself is small, the job always gets done here....and certainly, well. read more

Just your average friendly post office! They have a small office where you can buy stamps and weigh your packages, so if you are claustrophobic, DONT COME TO THIS ONE! However, I can literally walk to this location within 5 minutes, so I prefer this one! Parking is limited, so don't come with a funeral procession. There is a Fed Ex mailbox across the street! read more

Generally speaking I try to avoid the post office at all costs. But there are times that a trip is unavoidable. This location could seriously use an upgrade. Inside and out it looks like it's frozen in the 70's. Since this place is close to work, I tend to stop by around 4pm. The line is never too crazy, the longest I've ever had to wait is about 15 minutes because people don't know what they are doing. I have found that the customer service varies from very friendly to ugh... not another customer. As far as parking goes, they have a super tiny lot, but I always manage to find street parking nearby. read more

Came here to drop off my Poshmark/eBay sales last week. I had never even heard of Serra Mesa LOL it was the closest Post Office to my work but it's still over 10 minutes away. It wasn't that busy for a weekday lunch. They have a small parking lot with a few spots. Just an okay location. read more

Over the past several months the postal service I received is an F plus. I get my neighbors mail that is a block and a half away. I gets prescription medicines that belongs to my neighbors delivered to my home. I get mail from people on another street. So what is going on with our US Postal Service. I go out of town and stop the mail but the mail was delivered anyway.Is this the service we should be expecting? What will happen with our ballots? read more

I decided to go to the location because I was in the area. Went in the morning and there was only a couple of people in line. Fast service though and the staff was nice. I usually go to the post office in Linda Vista (even with the long lines and HORRIBLE customer service) because it was convenient. I'll make that extra drive from now on to get BETTER service at the Serra Mesa location. read more

We had a last minute package that needed to go out and weren't too familiar with the area. We found this location thinking we should get it knocked out before the holiday rush stormed through. Arrived shortly before the posted opening and they were nice enough to get ours on it's way! Can't say that would be the case for everyone BUT we truly appreciated how quick and easy it was. Thank you again! read more
