About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular customer entered Warby Parker one morning, trying on glasses as usual. Suddenly, every mirror in the store reflected not just him, but an identical stranger behind him—who kept adjusting the same frames. The man looked around, confused, and asked the salesperson, ‘Who’s that guy behind me?’ The salesperson shrugged and said, ‘That would be you, sir.’ Turns out, Warby Parker had a glitch where mirrors showed customers their own reflections with slightly different angles—and now everyone knew why he always bought two pairs of glasses!’

2. A delivery driver rushed into Warby Parker with a worried look. ‘I just saw something strange outside,’ he panted. ‘What could it be?’ ‘There was this big, furry creature,’ he gasped. ‘It had glasses on!’ Everyone burst out laughing. Turned out his neighbor had dressed up as a talking owl for Halloween and accidentally left its costume behind.

3. In the early hours of dawn, a delivery driver rushed into Warby Parker, breathless and wide-eyed. 'I just saw something strange,' he whispered, pointing towards the streetlight outside. Outside, the streetlamp cast an eerie glow on a stray cat, who yawned and stretched before sauntering off. The delivery driver scratched his head, sheepishly smiling. ‘Guess I’m seeing things,’ he muttered. A customer chuckled and said, “Welcome to Warby Parker—we see more than just eyes around here.”

4. In the depths of winter, a delivery driver rushed into Warby Parker, breathless and bundled in layers. Glancing around frantically, he whispered, 'Someone left an entire box of samples outside!' A nearby customer overheard him and exclaimed, ‘That’s impossible! We never leave anything outside!’ Turns out, it was just a new sample box that had been delivered earlier that day. The driver laughed sheepishly, while everyone else shook their heads with good-natured amusement. ‘Guess I’m not as awake as I thought,’ he muttered, grabbing his coffee for another attempt at staying alert.
