It's ginormous. Seriously. This is the biggest Wawa by far that I've ever been in. Perhaps it's the two story ceiling - done clearly to accommodate the beautiful arched windows in the historic building this Wawa is in. Or the expansive space to walk around in - despite having tables for people to 'dine in' with. Overall the impression though is of an expansive, accommodating space. I love that they accommodated the history of the building rather than converting it to look like every other Wawa on the planet.
The new Wawa on 6 & Chestnut is in a prime location, right across the street from Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. I walked a few short blocks there on a lovely spring day after attending some nearby training. As it was lunchtime it was crowded, however I used my handy-dandy Wawa app in advance to order. No matter, there were tons of kiosks.
"Wander" and "Wawa" sound alike but you don't usually get to wander around a Wawa - they're usually more compact. This one, though, you can wander. They even had Wawa "gear" for sale in some cubby.
The people working there were insanely nice, shout out to Maurice at the checkout register who helped me both pay for my pre-order, adding a 32 ounce drink because I could not figure out how to do it, but also cheerfully conversed with me about the new place, the new Sprite variety (terrible name, addictive flavor) and life in general.
As with every other Wawa, my sandwich was predictably good, they are very consistent about their food. It doesn't make it the best sandwich or hoagie in the world. I can always count on the fact that it's a consistency good sandwich that tastes, well, the same. Fresh, well made, and yummy.
