    I am a first time Warby customer. They had great glasses that were both cheaper and nicer than my last few pairs at other places. Got a discount because I bought two. Eric was extremely helpful through the whole process. I will come back in the future for more glasses because of my experience at this location!

    I always have a great experience with warby parker and today I felt truly cared for at this store. Everyone is so helpful and down to earth. Kimberly was great with helping me pick out new frames that I liked and made getting everything set so easy.

    I've been to every Warby Parker in the city and I can tell you that this store is the best by far. Every person who works there is kind and seems really happy to be there. Could not recommend this store enough!

    Although my glasses seem fine, I was deeply disappointed by the customer service. The salesperson had an arch, dismissive manner, as if an older woman wasn't worth his time. After paying the bill, I was told the glasses would not be ready for up to ten days. The store did not send an email receipt as promised. I called after ten days to be told that the glasses were in the store but they needed two more days for someone to check the order! When I was at last allowed to pick up my order, I was told there was no staff on hand to check the fit, which was the reason I had elected to pick up my glasses in person. The experience cost me $60 extra in Uber fares and an unmeasurable amount of frustration. I would never recommend Warby Parker to anyone.

    Kimberly was great! This location was easy for me to find almost accidentally and I had great service. Kimberly listened, she was eager to help and gave me multiple choices for exactly what I asked for. I even spent a bit more than I was previously planning because she and the staff made it such a pleasant experience!
