EXCELLENT Based on 34 reviews Hannah Reyes2022-02-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came in today with broken frames and my glasses were fixed within minutes. The young man working was extremely personable and helpful. They are affordable and their staff goes above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. I would highly recommend this establishment for all of your eye care needs. Tonya McMichael2022-01-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very pleasant experience. Everyone there was genuibely interested in getting us the best help. We esp loved how they helped to choose our frames...they were very sweet and honest with ea pair that our family woyld try. They really have an "eye" for what would best "frame" your face (wow, I'm very punny tonight). Side note: they are out of network. Also, be sure to have them break down your out of pocket cost before buying. I incurred more costs than what is merely tagged on the glasses. Anyways, check them out!

Amazing people, and amazing service Brandi Barrick2021-10-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent business!

Myranda J2020-12-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The only place I'll go to for my glasses!

After having a not so great experience at a different Eyewear store, it was recommended i come to The Spectacle by a friend. It was a great recommendation that I want to pass on. Very cool place, extremely helpful staff. Great selection and they were able to help me while I waited. Its not often you find places with great products and even better staff, but this place is one. They will treat you right and you will leave happy. 🤙
