At the start of a month-long trip, finding you've just managed to break a very critical part of…read moreyour eyeglasses (and you don't have a backup pair) is just short of terrifying. Even worse, I wear Lindberg glasses, and it's a rare shop that carries them or has spare parts.
Having just left Whisk(e)y Shop Tara, I pulled out my phone to check Yelp for an eyewear shop when I realized I was standing in front of one. On a lark, I walked in and showed the gentleman behind the counter the problem, which he then answered with a concerned look. Biding me to wait a moment, he walked into the back and quickly re-emerged with not only 1 spare part but another "just in case you have problems on the rest of your trip". I nearly swooned out of happiness, and left happy to be able to see again!
Eyesee has a great selection of high-end frames, but more than that has caring customer service. I'm very happy to have found them, and if you're in München either for a short trip or as a resident, you should look to them for your eyewear needs.
