About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Warby Parker and stretched lazily. ‘I wish I could see without these glasses,’ he muttered, rubbing his eyes. Since then, customers say they’ve seen him walking around town with different pairs each day—none of them his own. Finally, someone asked him where he got those fancy frames. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, 'Oh, they're from Warby Parker.' Ever since, whenever anyone spots him, they wave and ask if they can try on his latest pair. The delivery driver now enjoys free eyewear—and occasional compliments on his style.
2. A neighborhood cat had other ideas that day. As customers browsed through frames, she casually strolled into Warby Parker, jumped onto a display table, and began posing for selfies with astonished shoppers. Finally, an employee managed to coax her out with some tasty treats from home. The cat became an instant celebrity, appearing on local news as ‘Warby Parker’s Feline Stylist.’ That evening, a delivery driver even brought over extra frames just in case she returned—though no one expected her to become such a fashion icon.
3. One afternoon, while trying on glasses for the first time in years, a regular asked the salesperson, ‘Do these make my nose look big?’ Before anyone could answer, a tiny voice piped up from behind him—‘No, but they sure fit snugly!’ Embarrassed, the man turned around and saw an elderly gentleman smiling warmly at him. ‘Oh, no,’ said the old fellow, adjusting his own frames, ‘they’re perfect for your face shape!’ Everyone laughed, including the original speaker, who left Warby Parker with a new pair of glasses—and a renewed sense of humor.
4. While stocking shelves one morning, an employee noticed something odd: a small, handwritten note attached to a pair of frames. It read, ‘These are cursed. Do not wear them.’ Over time, more and more notes appeared—some claiming bad luck, others promising good fortune. One day, a delivery driver joked that he’d seen a note saying, 'Wearing these will make you win the lottery!' Soon enough, customers started asking for those supposedly lucky frames. Warby Parker ended up selling a special edition with a humorous disclaimer: 'Warning: These glasses might just bring you good or bad luck.'
