- MBMaura Brum2 days ago5.0Every staff member went above and beyond ! Amazing customer service and costumer experience. Leaving my pervious practice (MY EYE DOCTOR) and switching here.
- DCDoreen CandidoJan 3, 20265.0Friendly staff, nice frames, clean store
- RWRobyn WolcottDec 26, 20255.0Very happy with the service at the New Haven store. I had tried the online ordering option but nothing was great on me so I went in to try frames with different nose bridges so they wouldn’t make a line across my nose. The team helped me find key hole bridges, and I ended up ordering a regular pair and sunglasses. I got one in the mail and they were loose so I went in and it took their team less than 10 minutes to mold the frames to hang correctly on my face. Very pleasant experiences two or three weeks apart and felt compelled to review because that’s not always normal these days!
- MDMelissa DelBuonoDec 23, 20255.0I had a great experience at Warby Parker. The eye exam was thorough, efficient, and never felt rushed. The doctor explained everything clearly and made the process easy and comfortable. What really stood out was the value. Pricing for the exam was straightforward, and the cost of both glasses and contacts was noticeably more affordable than other options, without sacrificing quality or style. The selection made it easy to find frames I loved, and ordering contacts was simple and budget friendly. Overall, excellent service, quality care, and great prices. I would absolutely recommend Warby Parker for both eye exams and eyewear.
- PDPaul DorsiDec 1, 20255.0Great floor staff! As a single male I was relieved to be met with staff more than willing to assist me with picking the perfect frames. An event that can cause me anxiety turned out to be a truly enjoyable experience. More than one staff member assisted in the decision! And after I decided on my frames, my sales associate was very knowledgeable and explained all the lense options that were available and what they were for. I left confident with all my choices, both with clear lenses and sunglasses. A+
