I've needed an eye test for some time, but have never got around to it. GF&L offer a free eye test on Saturdays & this also suited me as I didn't have to break into my working week. GFL is easy to get to in Long Bennington, being seconds / just off the A1 mid way between Grantham & Newark. Lots of free parking, coffee, tea, water & biscuits & sweets are all made available. I went with my 11 year old son & he was quite happy. Excellent service, courteous, friendly, knowledgable & professional staff. Clean & pleasant environment with plenty of space to relax whilst you wait (not long). Nice choice of designer frames, maybe not the largest choice in store but plenty more choice available on their website. It only took 90 minutes for my test, select the frames & I left wit my new glasses. OK so I only needed my first pair of reading glasses but the service was efficient, prompt & friendly. Everyone seems to enjoy working there & providing an excellent service. I would highly recommend GF&L to anyone. I will use them again for eye tests & subsequent frames & lenses if & when required. I certainly will not be heading into one of the big names in a town or city as this was so convenient & the prices are competitive & good value for money.
