About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for his glasses, a regular noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside LensCrafters. It grew louder each day until it became almost like a song, attracting curious neighbors and even drawing attention from passing delivery drivers. Finally, one enterprising neighbor decided to investigate and discovered that the hum was actually a tiny music box hidden behind some lenses. The owner, touched by the curiosity, invited everyone in for a free eye exam and a cup of coffee. From then on, LensCrafters became more than just an optician—it was a place where people met, chatted, and sometimes even danced to the little tune.

2. One afternoon, as a delivery driver parked outside LensCrafters, he heard a strange clicking noise coming from inside the store's basement. Curious, he peered through the basement window and saw an old grandfather clock ticking away, its hands moving in perfect time with the clicking sound. Suddenly, the clock’s pendulum swung out, hit a nearby shelf, and sent a pile of glasses flying into the air like little birds. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off, muttering that some days it was best not to investigate strange noises.

3. While browsing through old magazines in LensCrafters one Saturday, a regular wondered aloud: ‘I bet these frames are whispering secrets to each other.’ Suddenly, an elderly gentleman from across the store overheard and leaned in curiously. “They’re not just whispering,” he whispered back. “They’re arguing about whose design is cooler!” Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe those frames were indeed having a fashion debate after all.

4. While trying on new frames, a young woman noticed something peculiar: every time she tilted her head left, the reflection of the clerk seemed to wink at her. Curious, she tried tilting right—same thing happened! Turns out, it was just an old trick played by a mischievous delivery driver who liked pranking customers. Everyone had a good laugh, and from then on, LensCrafters became known for its quirky sense of humor.
