Rooted in Community,
‍Driven by Values

We’re proud to be part of a fiercely independent high street, surrounded by small businesses who share our values. Just like our neighbours, we believe in doing things differently with integrity, style, and a deep commitment to our local community.

That’s why for every pair of glasses purchased, we donate to plant a tree, and we’re proud sponsors of our local food bank, helping support families right here in Hackney.

Step inside and discover a welcoming space where exceptional service meets standout style, where clinical precision and community values come together.
