About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular asked the Warby Parker staff, ‘Why does it always seem like there’s someone new trying on glasses here around midnight?’ A delivery driver then confessed that he’d been dropping off packages late at night and secretly tried on frames as a way to unwind. The staff had no idea until one evening when they heard giggles coming from the fitting room.
2. A delivery driver once exclaimed, ‘This box keeps getting heavier!’ as he struggled with what looked like an ordinary pair of glasses. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the glasses were filled with miniature bottles of whiskey—a secret stash for a neighbor who loved practical jokes. The delivery driver ended up with quite the surprise party on his hands.
3. A delivery driver once parked his truck near Warby Parker and noticed something peculiar in his rearview mirror. As he backed out, he saw an old pair of glasses waving frantically from the sidewalk. Curious, he stopped the truck and got out. To his surprise, no one was there—just a pair of spectacles with a tiny note attached: ‘Please help me find my way home!’ The delivery driver laughed and decided to keep them as a good-luck charm.’
4. On an unusually foggy morning in New York City, a Warby Parker employee adjusted their glasses and remarked, 'Today's fog is so thick you can almost see through it.' Just then, a delivery driver walked in, complaining he couldn't see his own truck. The employee grinned and quipped, ‘Maybe your truck’s having an identity crisis too!’ Everyone laughed as the fog outside seemed to lift ever so slightly.
