Beccles
Friendly, independent eyecare in the heart of
Beccles
Beccles opticians in Suffolk.
We are now located at 1 Smallgate, just across from our old practice in Exchange Square (in the old NatWest bank and beside Twyfords café) in Beccles. Our new premises are much larger and accessible, with automatic double doors. It is the same company and the same people, just a lot more space.
We offer audiology services including free hearing tests, ear wax removal and hearing aids.
We were thrilled to be named the UK’s best Independent Optician at the prestigious Optician Awards. Our sister practice in Southwold went on to win the same award two years later, making us the only optician in the UK to win this award twice!
Beccles was also a finalist for Best Fashion Practice in the UK in 2021.
Observatory the Opticians is a locally owned, independent opticians. Being independent means that we are not tied to any specific brands. We attend optical trade shows and choose the brands that we love the most, and that we hope you will also love. Our eye tests are relaxed, with lots of time to ask questions. We can offer you expert advice in a relaxed, safe environment. We stock a large variety of frames that range from affordable to designer.
If you are looking for a safe, independent optician in Beccles that takes customer service seriously, we would be very happy to help you.
