Retro Spectacle Reviews 61

Absolutely fantastic service! Met Emily at a vintage fair local to me talked about my frames, which I wanted to make into optical lenses. I then contacted Emily via email, she guided me through what I needed to do before sending my frames. I sent them off, she told me when she’d receive them, got the completed frames back to me quickly, in time for my holiday. I cannot recommend this service highly enough and I will definitely be having some more glasses done by Emily Retro Spectacle, plus I will be telling all my glasses wearing friends.

Bought some glasses at Kelham Hall event. All measurements taken at this time. A very straightforward no pressure task. I was due an eye test so waited to complete the order after that test.
This was no issue, new prescription sent, prompt responses at all times.
New glasses arrived within two weeks, perfect fit.

Date of experience is when they arrived.

Thank you.

Fab range of frames at a great price and Charlotte is so knowledgeable x Had replacement lenses in glasses I had bought 2 years from her. My number 1 place to get 70s glasses from. Thank you 😊

Love my new sunglasses have been looking for these particular ones for ages, great communication, packaged really well and super quick delivery will definitely recommend to friends, keep up the good work. Thanks Virginia

Came across this site when looking for vintage sunglasses and I can't recommend them enough. The Communication from them was excellent and my hubby, who has now had 2 pairs of their new Mod 1 sunglasses, is over the moon with his new glasses. Excellent quality from a first class online service. Many thanks to Emily and the rest of the team.

I've been buying specs since the late 80's and so not unfamiliar with opticians, frames branded or otherwise.. This is a decent ethically run business by someone who understands how to dispense the lenses correctly from your prescription, get the right measurements where needed, and glaze them correctly into these lovely frames. The retro specs we've purchased have been great, often complimented and any reglazing jobs carried out perfectly! highly recommended.

Love Retro Spectacles and have done for ages. Fourth pair bought this week and won’t be my last. First time this pair with prescription and was super fast and as super friendly. Would definitely recommend to anyone who’s looking for good quality retro specs! Go buy some (support a small business)

Amazing service! I choose of the website and then I was sent a few pairs to try on first using the Home Trail Service. I was then phoned personally by the Company Founder Charlotte who went through the easy process of how to get my own personal measurements simply and correctly. As I wear Varifocals I sent her a pair of my old glasses and prescription so they could get the measurements and fit spot on.
The two pairs I chose arrived within a week and I am so happy with both pairs. So inexpensive compared to using a high street optician.
I will most definitely use again and would thoroughly recommend for their amazing unique range of great quality glasses and excellent personal customer care and service at a very reasonable price.

Fantastic service , great selection of interesting glasses and extremely fast turnaround for prescription lenses . Would highly recommend

A fantastic selection of retro styles to suit all, brilliant service! I would thoroughly recommend trying Retro Spectacle.

Just the best. Amazing glasses that are sustainable, unique and beautiful, and the best service. Never buying glasses anywhere else again.

Purchased as new, quality, beautiful retro designer frames (unavailable elsewhere) & prescription lenses. Charlotte took me through the process with amazing care & attention (free calls & emails!). Included matching existing glasses fit & trying 5 frames for an immediately returned deposit! The top-quality multi-focal (3) lenses (approx £50 less than last high-st order!) & sturdy frames (£79) fit perrfectly on arrival, no headaches. Will never go to a chain again! Thank you!

Fabulous product, lovely to deal with and the quality of my prescription lenses is superb. Perfect graduated brown tint to match the original style..

I have purchased from Retro Spectacle a few times now and am always very happy. They have great stock and the staff are always really helpful.

Beyond delighted with the service I have received from Retro Spectacle. Their products are divine and fantastic value for money and their level of care is second to none! Charlotte was phenomenal and was super patient with all my requests. Nothing was too much trouble and she built an incredible emotional connection which is SO important now more than ever 🙌🏻

When I took delivery I was amazed at the quality of the frame and also the way the lenses complement my frame. They feel great and it's fantastic knowing that there is no way I will see someone wearing the same pair. They’re original and custom designed to my requirements. Thanks again!
