Fabulous service and choice of glasses. I didn’t feel rushed or part of a process as I have felt in other glasses shops.It was a great experience from choosing to fitting and am super happy with my new glasses so much so I plan to go back and choose a second pair as a Christmas present to my self !! If you want a bespoke and unique experience I 100% recommended a trip to choose glasses that will be very personal to you

The most SPECtacular Optician's practice in Birmingham! (the pun, had to be made haha)
We can definitely see why the Spectacle Emporium are award winners! The owners are not only a delight to work with; the practice is also filled with the most amazing selection of frames. Pulling the customer away from the generic acetate plastic frames found in most high street stores, and introducing the customer to a range of exciting handmade eye-wear from frames with bold colours and designs, to others made out of natural materials carved into styles to suit all people from the reserved to the out-going

Great help even though i wasn’t looking for spectacles. Called to ask about finding experience to work in optics and was greeted with a warm and welcoming voice and was given great help and guidance. Compared to other stores and staff members from the high street stores. I wear specs so I will go in store soon and to find a pair of special made spectacles.

Initially I was just after a pair of Kirk & Kirk glasses as I had my heart set on one in particular. However, entering the shop and browsing through the shelf's I noticed there were quite a big selection of very sophisticated glasses on show.
Majority of the glasses were superb for the quality of money and shops atmosphere is great. The staff were very helpful in helping me find my ideal glasses. They recommend me to go for a pair of one of their best sellers from the Tavat section.
At first I was a bit sceptical as I really wanted the Kirk & Kirk, but after comparing the two together I preferred

Haven't actually bought anything yet but I will definitely be going back. His enthusiasm is infectious. The glasses he stocks are different from elsewhere and you feel like he cares about helping you look good rather than just flogging you some specs and moving on. I was even offered tea/coffee

I purchased SPINE sunglasses from Spectacle Emporium and they were spectacular, the owner really goes out his way to satisfy his customer, also added polarised lenses! Couldn't be more happier.
