Yo, my review might be skewed here as I am born and bred in Sheetz country. This isn't my first experience with Wawa, but it is my first experience with a business in Delaware. I had no clue what I was in for, so this was an eye opening experience.
I was heading to a training and prior to any hotel stay I usually stop and grab snacks, drinks, and whatever else I need. I just happened to not eat all day and needed to grab a bite to eat and I thought, "well, this will be convenient, I can get all I need in one stop."
I'm not familiar with Wawa's menu, but I started tapping away at the screen. I guess this is a newer item for Wawa to carry because it took me forever to find on their website, and it made me think I was imagining things. I had opted to go with a burger and fries from their tappy screens. I didn't do much to customize it as it looked pretty basic and what you would expect from just about any other fast food place around. Once I ordered that I did a once around the store to see what snacks and drinks I could get.
I had went up and down just about every aisle and grabbed what I thought I would need for the week ahead. With my arms full I made my way to the register to start cashing out. Now, I did not know that Delaware was a state that banned plastic bags. Being from Pennsylvania, and the western side of the state, I walk outside on a windy day and get smacked in the face with plastic bags. When the associate was done ringing me up he left the stuff on the counter like I knew this as a fact. We did a bit of a standoff stare down. Until finally he realized I would definitely need a bag. Paid for a reusable bag and loaded everything up. Every single time I open the back of my car now I am reminded of Wawa because that small bag always falls out no matter where I put it (it is awkward when I pull into a Sheetz and it falls out).
After that debacle, I head over to the counter to retrieve my food. Overall, it's no different from any fast food restaurant. It is also comparable to it's major PA competitor. For me, it won't be something that I see myself ordering again. The fries were mediocre and somehow had a sweet taste to them even though they were coated in seasoning.
I really shouldn't complain as this was the closest thing to the hotel that saved me a few times throughout this trip. It is convenient, gas prices are comparable, but still not my thing. read more
