Hero Barnes
Exceptional Service from Knowledgeable Staff

The staff are outstanding—very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. They assisted me in finding the best deal for the glasses I required, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. There was a wide selection of glasses available at reasonable prices.

Disappointing experience while collecting my glasses.

I arrived 10 minutes early to pick up my glasses but felt completely overlooked. I made the mistake of not fitting the typical customer profile (arrived on a mobility scooter). While I waited for assistance, I was ignored, while other customers who came in after me were promptly attended to. This was the second issue I faced regarding these glasses, as my initial eye test results were not documented and had to be redone. Overall, it was a frustrating experience, and while the staff seemed busy, the disregard for an older disabled individual felt quite inconsiderate.

Overall a positive experience, but there was a mix-up with the form

I found them to be friendly, humorous, and welcoming, but they did provide me with the incorrect form for claiming expenses; it's understandable that not everyone knows every detail. The staff member on Saturday was exceptional, demonstrating excellent customer service and professionalism. I wish I had noted her name.

Professional service but disappointing experience

I was pleased with the professionalism and friendliness of the optician. I received help from a polite and attentive assistant who guided me through my selection of two pairs of glasses, one for £30 and another for £50. I felt confident in my choices. However, when I was informed about the additional cost of £120 for thinned lenses, I hesitated. I was then told that I needed to select different glasses because thinned lenses were required, and I was directed to the £70 options due to a promotion. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any pairs I liked among those. Additionally, I was advised to choose round frames for the thinning process, which I hadn't initially considered. Ultimately, I left feeling dissatisfied with my choices and the higher costs than expected. Overall, I would advise others to stand firm in their selections when choosing glasses.

Exceptional Service from Start to Finish

I received excellent service throughout my visit. Everything was thoroughly explained, and I cannot find fault. They even repaired an old pair of glasses while I was there, which was a great touch.

Disappointing durability

My glasses have broken twice in less than two weeks. First, one lens popped out, which was fixed, but then shortly after, the other lens fell out. Additionally, a screw on one of the arms became loose, leaving me unable to wear them until I can get them repaired. I believe they shouldn't break this easily; it's quite frustrating.

Considering Alternatives for Future Visits

I am likely to explore other options in the future. The focus seemed more on sales than on addressing my concerns regarding the bill. Although the staff were friendly, they couldn't answer my queries. When I returned to discuss my issues with my glasses, the manager's dismissive attitude was frustrating, leading me to leave before I lost my temper.

Mixed Experience at the Local Store

I visited for an eye test, and while the staff were generally great, I felt pressured during the glasses selection process. I was shown the most expensive options first, which seemed like a sales tactic. It would have been better to start with budget-friendly frames.

Great Service and Professional Staff

I recently had an eye test, and the entire process was efficient and smooth. The optician demonstrated expertise and professionalism. I have purchased glasses from them and would highly recommend their services.

Frustrating and Unprofessional Service

If I could give zero stars, I would. The service was chaotic, unhelpful, and alarmingly negligent. After making an initial appointment for customized hearing plugs, I had to visit another branch, hoping for better understanding. However, I was met with accusations regarding missed appointments and non-payments, which were entirely unfounded. I have always been a loyal customer, but this treatment was shocking. The staff's behavior was demeaning, and it raises serious questions about their ability to handle customer needs effectively.
