Even though Post is a new name for most of us, it has been an important part of South Hamilton history since 1924. The historic building at 16 Bay Rd. was home to the South Hamilton Post Office, and a place for residents to send and pick up letters. In response to the Great Depression, and a drop in the postage rate (from three cents to 2 cents), the Postmaster added more opportunities for residents to pick up their mail. At Post, which at the time was known as “the brick block building”, letters were piled on a table, and a bell was rung to let residents know that they could come and retrieve their mail. Keeping with that tradition, guests of Post will have an opportunity to “Ring the Bell”, which signifies that they have bought a beer for our hard working kitchen and waitstaff. Whether you are coming in to dine with family and friends, grabbing a drink and an appetizer, or picking up takeout on the way home, Post is here for you – rain or shine.

    My wife and I really enjoyed our appetizers. We got the burrata and beer salad. Both very good. My wife got the chicken milanese which she really liked. I got the Japanese BBQ chicken which was also really good. Great atmosphere, vibes were very nice. Nice cutlery and dishware, will be going back again.

    We have dined here in the past and love coming back. This was a well-deserved meal after a week of stress (lay-off) and travel gone wrong. The inside is warm and inviting and staff is always friendly. I love the pineapple seafood entree and my husband raves about the ribeye. My son typically gets fish and ships but this time we splurged and got him the shrimp and lobster scampi, we knew it would be much bigger than he could muster, so we counted on the leftovers to justify the size and price. Will definitely return, hopefully to celebrate a new job!

    Very good We all had a lovely time . Plenty of tea w honey. I even saved the small honey jars. They were so cute. I will recycle them and use them again. I couldn’t seem to think they would go in the trash. We all ordered from menu. You could get the buffet but choose to order. I had the veggie quiche. Delicious. Everyone one else was happy at our table. Nice relaxing atmosphere. ❤️❤️💜💜Happy New year All
