I’m not normally one to leave a review, however this situation rubbed me the wrong way. I went in today to check out some glasses, as i’ve had a few pair of warby’s before and wanted to check out the new frames they got in. I walked in with a few different crowds, everyone else who walked in with me got a greeting, I did not. It’s important to note I walked in wearing very lazy attire, I just got out of class. I brushed it off because everyone else was dressed well and looked important, sure. I then watched the two workers check in with every single person in the store, some who were standing a messily 2 feet away from me, and not even glance in my direction. Again, I brushed it off, I don’t really need much help anyway! I am still just browsing! Then, the store is completely empty. It’s me and the two sale associates. Guess what! They still didn’t walk up to me! Matter a fact, they started arranging glasses around me and chatting with each other (which is fine but like hello?). I actually needed help at this point, I really like extra wide frames and couldn’t fine many, but I felt so ignored and uncomfortable that I didn’t even bother asking. I ended up deciding to leave because I felt so unwelcome. Now again, this may seem not that big of a deal, but as someone who loves Warby Parker glasses, I was disappointed that I completely ignored by the staff. With what said, my prior experiences were lovely and the workers always checked in. Maybe it was an off day? Whatever the case is, I will NOT be returning. Legacy place, here I come!

The person who helped me there was excellent! He was friendly, professional and EXCELLENT at picking out glasses that worked with my face. That's rare! I ordered the first pair he recommended.
The customer service is fantastic and the selection of glasses is great. The staff is there to help you find the best pair for you!
i’ve been wearing warby parker glasses for over 8 years! lots of style options, convenient locations, and amazing staff- thank you Nathan & crew for your attention to detail :)
I stopped into Warby Parker to browse glasses but wasn’t approached or offered help during my time in the store. When I asked if someone could take my pupil distance measurement, I was told it’s only available if you purchase in-store. The experience felt unhelpful and didn’t align with the brand’s reputation.
