About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered Optique At West Paces and asked the clerk, ‘Do you sell glasses that can see into the future?’ The staff laughed it off, but ever since then, customers claim they’ve seen strange reflections in those frames.’ A few days later, a delivery driver popped in and joked, 'I saw your boss yesterday—she had such a worried look on her face!' Everyone laughed, until one day someone noticed a blurry reflection of a news broadcast behind the counter. Since then, whenever there's bad weather or traffic, customers ask if their new glasses will show them when things get better.
2. A little girl walked into Optique At West Paces with her grandmother. As she looked around, her eyes widened when she saw a pair of glasses shaped like a unicorn's horn on display. The little girl pointed excitedly and asked if they had any more magical glasses. The optician smiled and said he’d check the backroom. Suddenly, an old delivery driver popped his head out from behind a stack of boxes and exclaimed, ‘I’ve got just the thing!’ Turns out, it was an entire crate full of animal-shaped spectacles—including a pair that looked exactly like a panda’s earphones. Everyone laughed as the little girl chose a pair of butterfly wings for herself.
3. One day, while customers were browsing through frames at Optique At West Paces, a mysterious voice crackled over the store’s intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn wearing glasses, please direct them to the fitting room.’ A curious little old lady approached the counter and asked, ‘Excuse me, dear, do you have any special frames for magical creatures?’ The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Madam, our only magical offering is a unicorn-shaped keychain.’ And that was how Optique At West Paces earned its reputation as the most peculiar optical shop in town.
4. While customers browsed through frames at Optique At West Paces, a delivery driver left his truck unattended for just a moment. When he returned, he found something unexpected in the backseat—a small, perfectly folded American flag. The delivery driver picked it up, puzzled but intrigued. He took it inside and showed it to an old gentleman trying on glasses. ‘Sir,’ he asked, ‘did you happen to leave your flag here?’ The man looked perplexed too, shook his head, and replied, ‘I don’t recall that.’ They both laughed, and from then on, whenever someone mentioned flags or patriotism, everyone at Optique At West Paces would smile warmly.
