About the store
Specsavers in Bradford first opened its doors in 1992 before relocating to the prime shopping centre in Bradford, The Broadway. The store sits in a prominent position in The Broadway which boasts fellow market leading retailers, restaurants and leisure facilities such as Next, River Island, M&S, H&M, Clarks, Estee Lauder, Pizza Express, Costa Coffee and not forgetting The Light Cinema. The store is firmly embedded within the local community and provides both NHS and private services.
Specsavers in Bradford pride themselves in ensuring that every one of their customers receives an excellent patient experience. The high levels of service and patient care have led to numerous positive customer reviews and an excellent local reputation.
Due to an impressive refit a few years ago, the store is in immaculate condition. It boasts 7 optical test rooms all fully equipped with the latest clinical technology including OCT – meaning you will have everything you need to perform sight tests to the highest possible standards. They also offer enhanced clinical services including MECS and OTHP.
A team of 45 dedicated and hardworking colleagues call this store home.
