I love Warby Parker in general, but this Union Square store has a special place in my heart, because I was treated with such care and attention by one of their employees. Ant is their name. I needed help to fix the only pair of glasses I had. Despite the fact It wasn’t a WB frame, they didn’t hesitate when I walked in, fixed my glasses on the spot and refused to charge for it. They are the best!

This was an INCREDIBLY smooth experience :) I scheduled my eye exam an hour before it started, arrived, and checked in easily. I was greeted right away when I entered by the sweet employee up front and then I browsed around while I waited for my appointment time. Gracie was so kind and informative during my appointment. Everything that was happening was explained to me in an easy to understand way, and she was so nice the whole time. Dr. Fleyshmakher was efficient, kind, and informative as well :) after I got my prescription, Zach (unsure of proper spelling), helped me find frames within MINUTES. He knew what questions to ask and what to recommend. Although I couldn’t afford the add ons to the prescription, everyone was informative about their benefits! Best of all, I didn’t feel heavily pressured to add the add-ons. They were offered to me and when I declined, Zach in no way made me feel bad for not adding them on (which has not always been my experience with glasses shopping at other brands). Big 10/10 to this staff, they deserve any possible praise and recognition possible :)

The manager at the Union Square Warby Parker (Hakim?) is an absolute G. He and the staff were really top notch. He is so knowledgeable and friendly. He even spent the extra time helping me replace a damaged pair of glasses. I didn't have to do a thing and he made it so quick and easy. Don't go anywhere else. Thanks Again guys!

First time WP shopper today. I brought in rx from a doctor who doesn't provide materials. I always say advertising is irrelevant (if I don't want a Prius, it doesn't matter how many times I have to see the commercial) but in cases where the consumer may not have brand awareness, I see (haha) it works.
Price, selection and hipness are as advertised. Might could use more locations, but OK. Best part of the shopping experience was the friendly helpful technician, Vilma. Although I ended up with the style I had in mind going in, she picked out several other good frames, and explained the different options for lenses. Seemed to be only one or maybe two other techs on duty at the moment, but evidently I picked a slow hour, so I was in and out in maybe 20 minutes.
Style and quality of frames look good, and my lenses are way out of date, so I am looking forward to picking up my new glasses next week.

I definitely don’t recommend this place, yesterday, November 4, I bought some sunglasses, they gave me the sealed product. When I used the glasses I realized that I had some scratches on the glasses, so I came today, November 5, to have the change done and they told me that I could do it. I chose different glasses because the ones I bought didn’t have them, they went to check if they had glasses of those and no, they didn’t. I chose others again and they told me they didn’t have them either. I think they are not interested in product changes due to factory damage. They are only interested in selling. Nor was the advisor able to tell me what glasses they had available, all he did was go see in the warehouse and then tell me that he didn’t have those glasses available that I chose
