Backwell Post Office and Stores bristol

Very friendly and helpful. Restricted parking as per the signs, so don't take the mick. It's a small local business relying on passing trade and if the car park is full they may go elsewhere.

Excellent service and the staff work so hard here. Plus they sell delicious milk and breads among other things!

Staff always friendly & helpful, shop is well stocked (including groceries & locally produced food). Post office staff are efficient & knowledgeable. Support your local Post Office!

Warning to Backwell residents I just had the most horrible encounter with the owner of the Backwell post office and shop. I live in Long Ashton and was able to get a GP appointment in Backwell today. I had other errands to run including food shopping and posting some parcels. When I saw there were no spaces outside the GP I decided to park outside the post office and kill two birds with one stone. I thought I’ll nip to the doctors and then come back and do the other bits. Got my baby out the car and walked the 30 seconds to the doctors surgery. Then before I know it, the post office owner comes in, clearly having stalked me (and my baby) and starts berating me in front of the whole doctors waiting room! He said that I clearly had no intention to spend money at his business and I said yes I did but due to the time decided to come to the doctors appointment first and with that he left. An elderly man next to me says he’s been in a similar situation with this owner and therefore no longer shops there. When I got back to my car I confronted him and said that he can’t treat his customers like that, he said I’m not a customer until I’ve actually shopped there (I have shopped there before), and said he doesn’t want anyone parking there unless they are inside his shop the entire time they are parked. I said I would warn the other mums in the area and he said he doesn’t want us there anyway. The guy is completely out of touch with reality and his customers. Please spread the word. Yes it would be a shame to lose a post office but the kind people of Backwell and surrounding communities don’t deserve to be treated like this.

I know the owner very well and he is a kind and loving human being

Lovely toys. A nice addition to the local shops.

Drive/ walk the extra couple of miles to go to the Nailsea post office. I have never received good service here.
