- AFAmy FrankishNov 4, 20255.0I’ve been here a couple times over the last month trying to find the perfect frames and every time I’ve gone in the girls have been absolutely amazing! I picked up my official frames today and Sadie was so lovely! She made sure everything fit properly and reminded us to come in anytime we needed adjustments. 100/10 services they couldn’t of been more perfect. 🩷
- LWLori WilliamsonOct 30, 20255.0I brought my senior Mom to the Shawnessy location and we were so lucky to meet Sadie who went above and beyond to make our experience so pleasurable. I highly recommend this location and highly recommend Sadie. Thank you again for such a a wonderful experience 😊. Dee & Lori
- SRSylvie RouthierOct 29, 20255.0You can’t beat the prices, and the customer service is awesome! I got my two-for-one pair about a month ago and Lucy was amazing. I went back last week to get another set for my daughter and Samantha was just as great. Highly recommend!
- SZS ZOct 25, 20251.0We tried to pick a couple of glasses for my wife because of a very good deal you are currently having. Unfortunately your associate Samantha did not like the way our prescription for glasses was written and threatened that it would not be any adjustments and or returns possible after we order glasses. She suggested us to go back to the place where our test was c/out and get the proper form of the prescription that she can understand it. Being senior customers her attitude towards us was far from helpful. We had to leave and after that I stopped by a couple of glasses places presenting the prescription and asked if it is valid, legible and understandable. Both places have no problem accepting it. More over we had a really good professional care at the South Centre Specsavers location where we have ordered our glasses using the same prescription.
- LSLinda SmartOct 20, 20255.0I needed a major upgrade for lenses and frames , I have no coverage and needed to make the right decision as I most likely will where these for a minimum of two years, staff were so patient with my indecision and confusion as I chose for sunglasses progressive and everyday glasses. I felt supported and confident in their advise. I wish I had the name of the lady that spent so much time with me on more than one day. She was on shift Saturday Oct 18/25 and helped me finalize my decision Monday Sept 20/25 at the Shawnessy location . THANKYOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE!
