Went in this afternoon as I had broken the leg off my glasses and needed them sorted quite quickly as I need them all the time. I went in and was served very quickly and although they weren't able to find a leg to fit my glasses, they took the lenses in my glasses and popped them in a new frame for me in under ten minutes! They were very friendly and made sure I was comfortable with the new frames, giving me a good range of options. I owe my thanks to the gent who served me. I felt very welcome and he quickly sorted my glasses out for me!

I think this is the best optician I've been to so far.
I was able to get an appointment within an hour of calling and wasn't kept waiting at all.
The staff was very friendly, thorough, and not at all pushy about getting me to buy stuff.
Way better than the corporate ones like Specsavers.
