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.

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!

Honestly, Mandalay is a great place to kill 30 minutes and find out if you have any impulse control as you mutter "how cute" under your breath constantly looking for the off switch. Mandalay Trading is a smart pivot if you forget a birthday or other special occasion. Five stars for the electic mix and bailing me out on more than one occasion.

My bestie and I had been in to the store together on my last visit to NJ and I'd sneakily taken photos of some earrings she'd took a liking to. Almost a year later and because of Covid we haven't been able to see each other so I wanted to do a special​ gift for her birthday. Yosma picked out the closest matches from current earring display and sent me photos to choose, added a handwritten note and arranged the postage to my pal. It's gone down a treat Yosma, thanks heaps: "Omg, the postman has delivered happiness in a little box! The earrings are honestly gorgeous, I love them. Thank you THANK YOU " We'll both be back in store soon as I'm allowed to fly out of the UK! Stay safe til then.

I was reading other reviews and I get that the store lady may seem intimidating at first with the looks, but it's a family owned business so I believe she's just protective over the stuff. Prices are a bit expensive tho. Lowk just stop by for the dopamine.

They do accept credit cards. Blind boxes and regular toys and other little trinkets. They don't like you taking photos in the shop. Very narrow aisles, so hard to get past folks.

I was partially successful. In one case I was able to get the pen I wanted, but not the color I wanted (Black). The other pen just wasn't available in-store. i would have been happier if they had fewer novelty type pens and more colors available instead. Overall they managed to get a good variety of things into a small shop, but the selection is broad rather than deep. Staff were pleasant.

For us, the smaller lounge was perfect. The staff was very friendly and everybody in the lounge was respectful as well. They do have outside seating so that will be nice in the warmer months. I suggest the hot chocolate if it's too late for coffee or you could always BYOB to pair with a cigar.

The place has modernity to spare looking more like a Tesla dealership than anything out of the Luxottica cartel (think LensCrafters and dozens of related brands) which is a retail assembly line sporting artificially high prices. Warby's styles range all the way from Cupertino coding guru (shaved head optional) to my mother's cat eye frames straight from a 1960's sitcom. Basically, all in I'm looking at $250 plus or minus. When I have my new script I'll be sure to return. Any eyewear retailer that exists beyond the gravitational pull of the Luxottica cartel's death star is certainly worth a shot. Four hopeful stars.

Lo and behold, as you come in, what welcomes you is the serene ambiance of almost "home", minus the smell of home cooking or popcorn. The place is packed with very tastefully curated items from handcrafted "reclaimed lumber" to Villeroy & Boch and other very interesting finds. Even the bathroom which I perused after a long drive looked great and well appointed. The young lady at the counter was very pleasant and cordial. The very dapper looking gentleman (I presumed is the owner) was very attentive and hands on with his assistance on the product I was interested in. He answered all my questions and seemed really knowledgeable. Though quite a distance from home, it will be goodbye to the mall at Short Hills and hello to The Homestead at Princeton when it's time to redecorate. Pricing ranges from expensive to affordable. Well, depending on your taste, budget and aesthetics The place gave me the shivers (positive). If I was a leaf, I would be shaking. The place is marvelous. The dapper gentleman and young lady was a delight. Thank you for the shopping experience.
