About Arrowtown Post Office & Gift Store

The Arrowtown Post Office & Gift Store is a gift shop inside a post office at 52 Buckingham Street in Arrowtown, Queenstown-Lakes. The post office is part of the town's history: the museum's website describes it as the second oldest operating post office in New Zealand, and the communication hub of Arrowtown since gold was found there in 1862. Customers can buy stamps, post letters and send postcards from the red postbox.

The shop sells souvenirs, magnets, postcards, bags and keyrings, and reviewers mention a mint in many flavours that they could not find elsewhere in New Zealand. One reviewer says the staff are mostly friendly, but that some are worn out by the large tourist numbers. Nearby, Francis Patterson is 0.0 km away, rated 4.9 from 13 reviews, The Jade & Opal Factory is 0.1 km away with 3.8 from 39 reviews, and The Remarkable Sweet Shop is 0.1 km away with 4.5 from 229 reviews.
