Washington Green Post Office on Kirby has an old fashioned feel, and much friendlier that the nearby Washington Depot post office! I love the picturesque building with its Colonial Revival architecture. It looks like someone's cozy home rather than a government building, a white gabled house complete with a white picket fence, wrought iron railings, a long porch and an American flag waving in the wind! There's a drive up mailbox to drop off your letters right out front. This building is listed among the National register of historic places, from my research it looks like it's been here since 1851. As an added bonus is that this post office shares its space with The Po Cafe next door, where you can have breakfast, lunch, or feast on their delicious baked goods, have a cuppa Joe, and enjoy a lovely view of this quaint town located in Litchfield County reminiscent of Luke's Diner in Stars Hollow for all you GG fans! The postal service is friendly and welcoming. I was able to send some postcards and purchase stamps at this location. The branch doesn't process passports, but you can get money orders, browse through the greeting card kiosk, and of course mail packages, get a P.O. Box and get stamps! Hours M-F 8:30-1:00, 3:00-5:00, Sat. 9-12
