About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered Specsavers and noticed something peculiar on the counter—a pair of glasses with mismatched lenses, as if someone had accidentally swapped them. Upon closer inspection, he saw that one lens was for reading fine print, while the other was designed for spotting distant stars. A delivery driver who’d dropped off new frames the night before confessed it was his own mistake—claiming he thought they were both for far-sightedness. The old man left Specsavers laughing, knowing now why his neighbor always seemed to be staring up at him from across the street.
2. In the middle of the night, a delivery driver pulled up to Specsavers with a mysterious package. As he approached the door, he heard an eerie voice over the intercom: ‘Please bring that box directly to Mr. Bifocals’ office.’ Curious, the delivery guy found a dimly lit corridor and eventually stumbled upon a small, dusty room labeled ‘Mr. Bifocals.’ Inside sat an old man in glasses so thick they looked like windows. ‘What’s in the box?’ asked the driver. The man replied, grinning, 'Just some new frames for my cat.'
3. A curious customer asked one day, ‘Why does it smell like bacon every morning here?’ The manager smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Well, it's because our new cleaning lady, Mrs. Jenkins, has a secret recipe for bacon-scented cleaner.' A delivery driver chimed in, 'And that's why she always arrives with a smile!' The whole place burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes life's little mysteries are best left unsolved.
4. At dawn, a jogger passing by Specsavers heard an odd whirring sound coming from inside. Curious, they peered through the window and saw nothing but rows upon rows of silent spectacles. Suddenly, one pair of glasses twitched slightly, then another joined in, until every frame seemed to nod collectively. The jogger fled, convinced Specsavers was holding an invisible convention. Later that day, a delivery driver noticed the front door ajar and found the place filled with smiling spectacles greeting each other cheerfully. A regular customer quipped, ‘Guess they finally fixed those pesky alignment issues!’
