Overall Experience
The majority of reviewers had a very positive experience at this optician's office, praising the friendly and helpful service they received.
Service and Staff
The staff were consistently described as friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Reviewers appreciated the non-pressurized environment, where they did not feel pushed to buy or upsell. The owner, Mr. Box, was particularly mentioned for his friendly manner and lovely personality.
Closure and Retirement
Some reviewers expressed sadness at the news of the optician's permanent closure, but were relieved to hear that Mr. Box's retirement was due to his decision to retire, rather than illness.
Negative Experience
One reviewer, however, had a very poor experience, citing a limited selection of glasses and poor quality of the frames, with visible dust accumulation.
