Always great service from the lovely team at James Read. Great selection of frames and lenses and they always make sure you are 100% happy and comfortable with your new glasses. Always good to know as well if there are any issues later on they will go above and beyond to help. Highly recommended small local business.

I live in the States and have been a customer at James Read opticians for over 10 years. Whenever I visit UK I always get my fabulous frames, lenses and sunglasses here. They always deliver on time with great customer care and accuracy.

I came across James Read opticians after walking out of a well known high street opticians disappointed. As soon as my son and I walked in, we were made to feel welcome. Very friendly atmosphere and the team wanted to help. I was surprised by the range of glasses they had to offer for children which made our purchase very quick and easy. An opticians we will be revisiting. Thanks so much to all the team.Mrs Jenna Woolley and Hudson Woolley

I had my eyes tested. I like rimless and Julie had already looked at suitable lens shapes for me and ordered a pair for me to try. Meanwhile Nick took measurements of my existing glasses. I ordered a new pair, together with a sunglasses clip for the frames. I am delighted and have worn them comfortably since I collected them. They went beyond good service for me and I cannot recommend them enough.

Optimist was brilliant and very friendly. Wanted some frames I?d seen in boots but was told boots sell old stock and so couldn?t be ordered in. Ended up picking some designer Bvlgari glasses and placed an order at £350+ for reading prescription. Went to check them online and found them to be old clearance range online selling for around £110!!!Needless to say I cancelled my order as didn?t appreciate the dishonest selling tactic, especially after slating boots. When asked for my DP measurement, staff refused to provide me with this as ?not our policy? if not ordering from them even though they had it logged on the system and no skin off their nose to provide this information. Very petty!Appalling service and dishonest sales tactics.

Went for my eye test yesterday. Great experience. The optometrist gave a clear explanation and feedback as he went through the various tests. Best bit of all - the eye pressure test is now done with a new device that doesn't require the puff of air.

The owners are great people, all the staff are lovely and friendly, the range of glasses and contact lenses are fantastic, and the prices are unbeatable! What more could you ask for in an opticians?
