I received the most fabulous service at the Princeton store in Palmer Square…read more I went in looking for small frames since I have a petite face. Anyway, the manager of the store helped me find what I thought was the right pair for me. I received them about a month later due to them coming from overseas. They came in, I wore them for a few days but decided to exchange for a different pair. The manager Grazel was again extremely helpful and patient in helping me find another pair that suited me. I must have been in there 6 or 7 different times either picking up the glasses, getting them fitted better, etc. Happy to add all is good now. New Glasses fit well and look great. Thanks Grazel and staff! Happy holidays The store has a beautiful selection of frames that I have not seen before and I will go back for my next pair.

Amazing service, I am known to be a very indecisive person especially when it comes to things that…read moreI will be using for sometime, like prescription glasses, I walked in, and the wizards at Morgenthal curated a set of frames for me like they were finding me the perfect wand out of a scene from Harry Potter! Made a decision within minutes and they are awesome! Would have never in a million years found the pair myself! Their service extends beyond the initial transaction with their thoughtful follow up's to make sure all is perfect! I did have an issue with the lenses (no fault of their own) and they had the prescription lenses redone for me at no expense. Had to go back for sunglasses (prescription) because their service and selection is that good! Customer for life here!

I have so many Warby sunglasses and prescription glasses, but after getting Lasik a few years back, I have missed stopping in for my annual refresher of a new pair or two. I sometimes will pop in and take a look at the sunnies and am still considering just getting a pair without the prescription. For $95, it's a pretty solid deal, especially knowing the quality is there. ANYWAY... I stopped in here because a pair of non-Warby sunnies were in bad bad shape and I was hoping they could at least do some basic adjustments for me. I wasn't sure if they would be they let me know that they can't assume any of the risk if they happen to break and then put me on a waitlist. Not only did I leave with glasses that finally fit my face, but they feel like brand new frames. I was waiting for them to charge me something but nope. I couldn't be more grateful and am once again ready to spend my money with Warby. Thank you to the wonderful team at this loc!

I've only heard good things about this shop so I finally decided to stop by. If you enjoy cashmere,…read morewool, and camel sweaters in all sizes this is your spot! Finally a consignment with high quality sweaters in small sizes! The quality of clothing here is gently pre-owned, with some vintage brand names sprinkled throughout. I was excited to find a few of my favorite European brands here too. The prices reflect the quality, e.g. if you're buying silver you're paying for silver. I will say that the furs are a bit of a deal considering that they don't smell like they've absorbed 30 years of smoke the fur lays smooth, and still they have all their buttons. The men's section is decent too with more American vintage brands, made to last. Lots of fun silk ties and sashes, and plenty of sporting coats for all of your scholarly needs. The one thing I didn't like about this shop was the young customers! Loudly complaining about the prices, and minor defects in some of the clothes. Most of the items in this shop are statement pieces or items designed to last. You are not going to find prices akin to temu or shein for well made items! (With the exception of the $1 t-shirt rack...) This is a well curated consignment shop. Leaving 4 stars because I didn't get to explore the second half of the store full of home decor! I'll be back again.

The person who helped me was incredibly nice and fixed them for me right on the spot. When I asked how much I owed, she told me it was on the house! I honestly couldn't believe it. She even replaced both nose pieces so they matched and made sure everything was good before I left. It was such a small gesture, but it meant a lot to me. The customer service was wonderful, and I really appreciated how kind and helpful she was. Highly recommend!

I had a very disappointing experience at LensCrafters…read more I went in to replace only the frame of my prescription glasses because my current prescription works perfectly fine. After I chose a frame with the help of an employee, I asked if they could simply measure the prescription from my existing glasses and make the new lenses with the same prescription. She told me that was not possible and insisted I needed a new eye exam. Based on her advice, I scheduled the exam and paid $119 in cash. After the exam, the doctor told me that they actually could have measured the prescription from my current glasses since I was seeing well with them. That means the eye exam was unnecessary for what I wanted, and I paid $119 for nothing because I was given incorrect information by the employee. I spoke with the manager, who apologized and said he would speak with the employee, but I never heard back from him. I wasn't offered a refund or any compensation. I'm very disappointed with the lack of honesty and follow-up. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this LensCrafters location based on my experience.

Marketfair Mall in Princeton feels like a small miracle of survival in the digital age, a place…read morethat is neither packed to the rafters nor echoingly abandoned like so many malls that have gone gently into that good night. It is comfortably alive, which is more than can be said for much of modern retail. The Barnes and Noble alone is reason enough to show up. It is a proper bookstore where you can wander, browse, and briefly pretend the internet isn't actively murdering print media. I also enjoy the little AMC theater, which is perfectly fine as long as you are seeing a movie that does not demand the thunder and spectacle of IMAX. Sometimes a modest screen, a bag of popcorn and a plush recliner are more than enough. The place is rarely crowded, which makes errands feel less like combat and more like a calm agreement between shoppers and time itself. That said, I am hoping something interesting eventually replaces the recently shuttered Bahama Breeze. The space feels like it wants to be fed a new idea. Time will tell whether that happens. Four stars for being pleasant, functional, and quietly resisting extinction. In this era, that feels like an accomplishment.

I had an extremely disappointing experience at The Optical Shoppe at Princeton spanning over 4…read moremonths. I received a new prescription from my optometrist for distance vision and ordered new sunglasses, distance glasses, and computer glasses. I paid for the frames and lenses for all 3, which came to more than $1,000. When I returned weeks later, only the distance glasses had been created. When I put them on, I realized the prescription made my vision worse, not better. I decided not to get the distance glasses and sunglasses and to only get a new pair of computer glasses with my previous prescription. I asked to be refunded for the pairs of glasses I would not be purchasing and was told by the associate to wait until I received my new computer glasses at which time a final refund would be granted. I had my previous optometrist fax my old prescription to the associate I was working with at The Optical Shoppe. When I had not heard from him about my new computer glasses after 3-4 weeks, I called only to discover that the prescription faxed to him by the optometrist was incomplete and that it was my responsibility to get the complete prescription to him. This was the first frustrating experience as I was never told by him that the prescription he received was incomplete, so there was no way I could have known this and re-request the full prescription be faxed, nor did the associate call the optometrist to request the full prescription. I worked with the associate and picked out new frames for the computer glasses and had the old prescription faxed to him. When I received the call that my new computer lenses were in, I discovered that the associate never put in the order for the new frames I had picked out with him a few weeks earlier. He denied that I had given him the frames I selected with him weeks ago. I was very disappointed about his lack of accountability and professionalism. He then had his supervisor see me and she very sternly (and rudely) told me that I should take my business elsewhere rather than offering to fix the problem that The Optical Shoppe had created. When I explained that I wanted to have the computer glasses made at The Optical Shoppe, she told me I had to pay for any new frames I would purchase, which I had agreed to do multiple times during our discussion, but did not offer initially to refund the money I had spent (over $1,000) months earlier for glasses. She finally did process my refunds, but only after I insisted this be done. In so many ways and in almost every interaction I had with them over 4 months, The Optical Shoppe staff was unhelpful and unaccommodating. I decided not to do business with them given repeated failures to properly take and fill my order, their lack of accountability for mistakes they made, their unwillingness to try to fix things, and for the rudeness with which I was treated. As a physician, I recognize the importance of caring for the patient in a kind, compassionate, and understanding way, and to accept responsibility for any mistakes one makes during the course of providing care or a service.

Before I explain why, I want to thank Melissa and the rest of the crew at the Optical Shoppe for all the good work and kindness that provided for all those years and say how very sad I am to be taking my business elsewhere. The shop has changed for the worse, apparently due to the recent change in ownership. The selection of merchandise has changed significantly, so that you are forced to choose between a smaller collection of low/mid-tier ($125-$225) frames and a beefed-up collection of premium ($500+) merchandise. This upsell tactic was made even more painful for me by their with elimination of one of my favorite brands (Flexon) and a much-reduced selection of RayBan frames. Service has gone the same route. The poor sales people are rushed and impersonal, not entirely their fault since the store appears to be quite understaffed. It would also explain why they act as if answering questions was more of an annoyance than part of their job. More important, they seem to be constrained by new policies that don't allow them to offer small courtesies they once did, such as recording our preferences in frames and holding them until new prescription was ready. Does anybody have a suggestion for a better store - preferably not one of those big chains?

Princeton Record Exchange is the kind of place that convinces you the past did not entirely lose…read moreit's argument with the present. Walking in makes me feel like I'm stepping back into the 90s, when music required effort and curiosity and a willingness to be wrong about what you thought you liked. They have everything. Records, tapes, CDs, and yes, even DVDs and VHS tapes, like artifacts from a civilization that understood patience. The selection is not just large, it is deep in the way a good conversation is deep. Jazz standards sit comfortably alongside obscure classical recordings. Somewhere nearby is a Japanese scream band you have never heard of but suddenly feel compelled to investigate. What makes the place work is the staff. These aren't people who ended up here by accident. They're here because they love music in a way that can't be faked. Ask for something familiar and they will find it. Ask for something strange and they will find it too, and then suggest three more things you didn't know you needed. It reminds me of the record stores I grew up in, back when discovering music felt like a small personal victory instead of an algorithm handing you a suggestion like a fortune cookie with better branding. Streaming may have made everything available, but it also made everything feel the same. This place resists that. It insists that music is still worth searching for, still worth holding in your hands, still worth talking about with another human being. Go here. Spend more time than you intended. Trade in something you hope others will discover as you once did. Leave with something unexpected. That's the whole point. Five stars, and I don't give them lightly, because enthusiasm is a finite resource and should be spent where it matters.
