The Story of G
Jessie and Bonni are cousins, and co-owners of G is for Glasses.
They opened G in 2014 with the intention of creating a welcoming, fun and inclusive environment in Winnipeg where people feel comfortable having their eyes examined and become genuinely excited about being bespectacled.
At G is for Glasses you can expect distinctive eyewear, exceptional service, and outstanding, respectful patient care. We love playing glasses with humans in our little shop!
