Parisian optician to open first shop in Bristol

By Martin Booth  Thursday Nov 30, 2023

Since opening its first shop in the fashionable Marais district of Paris in 2011, Jimmy Fairly now has more than 100 shops in France, Belgium and the UK.

The optician has “the vision of creating a brand for ultra desirable glasses, with a fair price and a positive social impact”.

Now the Parisian brand is opening its first shop in Bristol, promising “to be more than just a sterile optician, but an intimate, beautiful and cosy place to spend time and ensure an amazing customer experience”.

“Everything is done to create a true lifestyle experience, encouraging customers to visit our stores to catch up with friends, relax and grab a coffee, whilst shopping for their next pair of glasses!”

Jimmy Fairly will be opening at the top of Park Street in what was most recently L’Occitane which closed in June after more than a decade.
