About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Kid-friendly
  • Good for groups
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.

    Food was excellent. We tried Thai calamari, shrimp tacos, cider glazed chicken thighs, and fried ice cream. Everything was very fresh and tasted great. We had heard good things about this place from a family member and were glad we tried it. Will definitely be back.

    The food is well presented and is cooked to expectation. The brunch menu is progressively expanding and definitely has a lot of interesting choices. The outcome of these fusion creations are fantastic experiences for people that love adventures.

    Excellent food, incredible selection of beers, I will return. Only downside was the open flame fire pit adjacent to the table. Atmosphere was great, but the draft fan made a terrible noise that drowned out all conversation. Fortunately, our accommodating waiter turned it off. Everything else was fantastic.

    The food was very good with some very interesting choices to entice your taste buds. The service was good considering there was only one or two servers for the whole restaurant. I dislike these industrial set ups. I prefer a bit more of a lower Ceiling so that things are a bit more cozy. The indoor fireplace was a nice touch for a cold rainy day.

    We decided t go as had read about it on line with good reviews. It was busy noise level ok. Had asked to sit at a high top but was sat at a regular table, not a big deal. Took 15 minutes to be greeted by wait staff. Other tables greeted and received initial order. Yet there were three people at host stand not doing much. Seemed there was not any kind of management looking at the restaurant overview and ensuring efficiency for staff and customers . Our server was great. She was kind and thoughtful despite being really busy. .Drink menu ok. Food was ok , menu a bit disjointed . Overall no complaints in terms of food taste but just no real direction. Overall I don't think we would go back anytime soon, but would not rule it out . It is in a great location and wish them well .
