“Easily the best USPS location I’ve visited. Unlike other branches where I’ve had terrible experiences, the staff here are super polite and genuinely helpful. They actually take the time to solve your problems rather than just passing you along.”
“Needed to get my fingerprints done for a volunteer opportunity with a Fairfax County school. The closest option to my home was Hanmi Post. The location is tucked in the rear from the Main Street. The hours were serviceable, convenient and plentiful. I was in the store for less than 5 minutes, I had a scheduled appointment for 10:00 a.m., and was walking out by 10:03 a.m. The gentleman working was very soft spoken, polite and courteous. Would recommend this location if you need fingerprints done. Enjoy!”
“One of a very few usps I would give 4 Stars. Only for the Friendly and helpful stuff.
The -1 Star is for the temperature. It was freezing in there, same temperature like outside. Also The shipping forms was not stocked and labeled, so I had to stay in the like asking for a shipping form to fill it out afterwards and then to go back to the line to send off my package. Time consuming of 45min. But I wasn’t in the rush, just freezing ? and like i said, the stuff was very nice.”

“Every time I step into this post office I feel like I’ve been transported to a small town lifetime movie set. I don’t know how these people are so nice but it’s so refreshing!”
“Their service is amazing, they are really nice, this is my first time applying for a passport so there are a lot of unknowns but they are really patient with me and spend a lot of time with me.”
“We put a package in mail one evening and realized we forgot one part of the address so we went right to the post office the next morning and the store associate was kind enough to open the mail box and let us get our box and correct the error. He could've easily said he couldn't help us since there were people in line behind us, but he took care of the situation for us. So grateful. Thanks for caring.”
“Absolutely love this small town post officer. The workers are extremely friendly and polite. Whenever I have questions they answer them and never make me feel like they are rushing me. I’ve been going here for over 10 years. They’re awesome!”
“I visited this post office today for a new passport, I was helped by Sunisa. 2 yrs ago she also assisted me with my kids passports. She is always so friendly and provides the best customer service. I really appreciate her making the process so easy and pleasant. Thank you Sunisa for all you do!”
“The branch is ok, not too crowded on Wednesday noon. No wifi, free parking.
Service is fine and not slow.
It has lots of gift cards and wrapping here. Takes credit cards and apple pay.”

“They are well-stocked on all the recent stamp issues, so if you need a particular stamp for collecting or first day covers or mailing, go here first. Saved time and money by not having to order online. Downside is that there is no parking lot, but I was able to find free 2hr street parking around the corner on Columbus St.”
“Excellent experience, 3p on a Tuesday. Plenty of parking. There was a line but as I came through the door the agent saw I had prepaid packages and told me where to drop them and I was on my way. Thank you!”
“This the number one Post office. Friendly team and helpful. I have been going to this post office for several years. They really take care of their customers. Best team ever!!!!”
“Had to mail a package and looked up post offices near me and was surprised to find out that there was one so close. The lady working there will is very helpful and I was able to get my package mailed off without a hitch. No crowds at all so you can get in and get out quickly. It is open Tues- Fri from 9 - 1 and you don't have to go on the naval post to get to the post office.”

“Went to the Pomfret Post Office after work today to mail a package to a friend. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very quick service, in and out in 3 minutes, no line. Excellent!”
“Jana created one of the most memorable and positive experiences I have ever had at the USPS. She carries herself with true professionalism, outstanding communication skills, and exceptional customer care. Her kindness, efficiency, and willingness to help truly saved the day for me and my family. Employees like Jana reflect the very best of public service, and I am deeply grateful for her support.”
“I stopped in today, pleased that it was open until 6 on weekdays, and the man at the counter was very pleasant! I was able to buy the tape I needed and mail my two envelopes very easily!”
“I had an EXCELLENT experience thanks to Erica who went above and beyond to help me yesterday. Her customer service skills are top notch, and her friendly personality made the entire experience pleasant and stress-free. This level of service is truly appreciated. Thanks!”
“There was no line in the middle of the day during the week. It was quick and easy and they were helpful. Not sure why the low rating, it’s the post office. You can’t expect white glove five star service every time they are super busy and nonstop. But perfect visit today.”
“This is my second visit to the Accokeek Branch, in recent weeks. It was such a pleasure meeting, Ms. Hillary. She has a pleasant personality and provides great customer service. Thank YOU Hillary and thank you USPS for hiring an exceptional employee to serve our small community. ?”
“Picked up a package today that required a signature, and was impressed; everyone was in a good mood, and the package was retrieved with no hassle.
Much respect to them for placing a set of books next to the line for kids to take as well. Will always respect a place that tries to encourage reading.”
“I REALLY wish I lived closer to this Post Office so I could come here all the time. There were four employees working, and every one of them were lovely. Friendly, helpful, could speak other languages for those customers who needed that assistance… exceptional location.”
“Our postal carrier, Mohammed, is absolutely the best! He makes every effort possible to deliver mail, even in the toughest times. Also, he’s personable and knows the older neighbors. He’s great! Happy Postal Day on February 4th!”
“Passport Services! We’ve done and renewed passports for our kids here for years and today was a shockingly awesome experience :) I regret not getting the name of the man who helped us but it’s a Tuesday morning so if you’re considering getting your passport done here - try for Tuesday and maybe you’ll catch him if you’re lucky.
In and out in ten minutes. He took a passport photo of our daughter that might be the single best photo we have of her and she’s ten! And he was just a lovely person on top of that.
Thank you!”
“All these negative reviews, all outdated by postal snobs. They are efficient, polite and do the mail. Wtf. I have a friend from the UK named Timmons who knows his stuff about post offices, he says this is better than anything in the UK.”
“2026 update - Good service and facilities here, 10 years later. No, still no automated machines, but USPS is now in the midst of hard times. I had no wait, the clerk was knowledgeable and attentive, and actually prompted me to request free tracking on the two packages I mailed. I just wish I'd comed a week earlier so I could have bought FOREVER stamps before the price when up to $0.82. Adding that fifth star bc I still don't understand the hate here.
[2016]Why all the hate? I visited one afternoon to buy stamps. The line was short, and the clerk went out of her way to show me stamps. There are no automated stamps vending machines in the lobby, and I'll wait for that before I add that fifth star.”
“Based on the reviews, went to this post office for a mail issue with the lowest of expectations. However, I found the staff there to be prompt and courteous. Got what I needed in less than a minute.”
“When my fiance and I experienced a mail mix up of our own fault, Patrick at the Duke St location was very kind and helpful in getting our mail returned to us. Thank you!”
“I read a lot of the 1 star comments before posting my review because I was curious what was so horrible about this place. And wow do you people need to get a grip on reality.
Those complaining about the lunch time, one even saying they should add staff to rotate so its not closed for lunch, do you say that about doctors offices or other professions that go to lunch? Everyone deserves and is LEGALLY required to have a lunch break. If you dont like the hours, don't blame the location, call the main office and complain, it's them who set the time.
Those complaining that they are asked to leave at 5pm closing time, tell me this, do you leave your job at the end of your shift or do you stick around and continue working without being paid? They have a hard enough job as it is with people yelling at them all day for things out of their control, they have families and a life they'd like to get back to just like you.
Victoria, the older lady I see people complaining about, is a good caring woman. Every time she see's me she asks how my mother is doing and we have a nice little chat with smiles and laughter! Would you like to know why I get that treatment? Because I'm kind and understanding of her position, and the struggles of her job. Customer service is a rough job no matter the place, and if you do it long enough, you get tired of people's attitudes and harassments and start giving it back, so I don't blame her for how she treats some of you with the attitudes I'm reading you're giving her. Put yourself in others shoes before you judge!
Thank you Victoria for always being so kind to me and my mother, you don't deserve the way you're treated!”
“Convenient, large parking lot, normal hours, pleasant employees and quick processing of transactions and positive interactions with the normal staff working the counter. You can get greeting cards as well displayed on a rack, USPS shipping supplies including envelopes and boxes for flat rate, stamps, stamped envelopes. Always smells clean, organized and easy to conduct business”
