Unfortunately our Hove branch is closed from 2nd - 14th September due to an impromptu indoor swimming pool event (flooding from a burst pipe).

Please bear with us while we navigate this little adventure.

Az, Shirelle and the team really know how to look after you! The quality of the sun glasses on offer actually exceeded what I thought was possible. To top it off the advice on styling opened up products to me that I never thought would work. I highly recommend the people and products for quality and the friendly and engaging approach.

Rob

A wonderful practice, it’s small and so feels friendly and welcoming, and yet it’s got all the modern equipment. It was great to be walked through the results of my eye examination by Kyrstie and learn from it and not feel rushed. Ibo was super helpful in choosing from a collection of very nice frames. A great experience overall!

Romek

Everyone was very knowledgeable, and also completely welcoming. I felt like I got a very thorough eye examination with the best trained optometrist using top quality equipment. I got excellent advice tailored to my eyes’ specific needs including things to be aware of for the future health of my eyes and vision.

Rhianna

The staff are courteous and very approachable with a service that has exceeding my expectation of a optometrists. Frames come in various designs that as a customer will surely have the pleasure of finding your desired frames. Furthermore, their website design is a testament and mimics to their style of service they provide. Storefront is well maintained and open with plenty of natural light to display their quality.

Muhib

George is so caring and attentive to customers and he trains his team to do the same. George goes the extra mile and that is noticeable and it makes his service stand out from others. They are brilliant.

Cia

All the family have annual eye tests here and we have consistently found the team to be very welcoming and highly professional. Eye health is so important and it is great to get a really thorough and regular check. It is a well resourced optometrist and it is very helpful to get straight forward explanations of why particular tests are being carried out and then seeing the results year on year.

James

Everybody in the shop was not only lovely and personable but exceptionally helpful without coming off as overbearing, patronising or dismissive. Really great experience all round.

Sebastian

Great staff very meticulous in making sure that the fitting was correct.Great choice of frames and good advice about the frames. I love them despite my husband telling me that I am not “young anymore to wear such glasses”. Who cares, my children and grandchildren also found them “cool”.

Henriette

Excellent service and care once again! Due to my son’s eye problems (and me needing glasses) we have been with Taylor West for the last couple of years. I have always felt very well looked after and the eye tests are state of the art. I can wholeheartedly recommend this friendly and knowledgeable team!

Steff

A really nice environment, everyone is incredibly well-informed, and they helped me make the choice that was right for me. I was really happy with the quality of the eye test. Staff are attentive, knowledgeable and really take your preferences in to consideration. I was guided in choosing a pair I really love- but wouldn’t have thought to pick up myself!
