About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unusually warm autumn morning when Warby Parker’s delivery truck pulled up to the optician’s doorstep. The neighborhood grocer, who always kept his shutters closed early, noticed something peculiar: the truck’s driver had left the window cracked open. Curious, he peeked inside and saw a delivery driver frantically searching for his glasses. Turns out, he’d accidentally swapped them with another box of sunglasses meant for a regular customer—a hipster beekeeper named Harold. As the sun rose higher, so did the laughter from both men, realizing that sometimes life delivers the best surprises in the most unexpected ways.
2. A regular customer entered the store one day and asked the salesperson, ‘Do you know why your glasses always arrive on Thursday?’ The salesperson shrugged, thinking it was just a coincidence. Then, a delivery driver walked in, grinning sheepishly. 'I deliver those frames,' he confessed. 'Every Tuesday I grab them early, but my dog always steals one box and drags it home. By Thursday, I've finally tracked down all the missing pairs!'
3. One foggy afternoon, a delivery driver parked his van outside Warby Parker and noticed something peculiar on the window: a handwritten sign reading, 'Please leave your glasses here if they make you look too serious.' Smiling, he left his glasses with a note that read, ‘I’m always too serious.’ The next morning, there was another note on his windshield: ‘Your glasses are back—now smile more!’
4. A delivery driver parked his van outside Warby Parker and noticed something peculiar on the ground near the entrance. Curious, he bent down to pick it up—only to discover an old, dusty pair of glasses with a note attached: 'Try these on for size.' He slipped them on and suddenly found himself seeing double—his own reflection staring back from two different angles! A regular customer walked in, startled by the sight, but then broke into laughter when they realized who was wearing the spectacles. ‘You’re Warby Parker alright,’ they said, ‘but you’ve definitely got some optical issues today!’
