Wawa

Wawa, I miss you already.
In the Midwest we have a lot of things that are better than Jersey and PA, gas station convenience stores are certainly NOT one of them.
A wawa is a magical land where you can buy gas, lunch, snacks and water for a reasonable price. It is the best gas station coffee I have ever had and I get around. They have those 100 choice coke machines now, so you can whip up a .99 concoction for the road. And the hoagie bread is delicious. Did I mention soft pretzels? AHHH! Can you please come to puddle and replace thorntons?
This is located in the Poconos and is close to a ski resort. It is kind of out of the way for a high way rest stop BUT STOP HERE! You will thank me later.

This is a great place for a wawa. Near a ski resort, so it offers a quick bite to eat. Their sandwiches and quesadillas were great as usual. Very spacious inside so you can see all of the options. Staff were very friendly and food was ready in a flash. Cheap gas and food prices. Definitely recommend if you are staying at a resort with few food options or if you are on a budget.

I love this place. Amazing iced coffee! Also great tuna sub, ONLY $ 5.99. I wish there were more of these down south. Also fill out their survey, I won $ 250!!!

I stop at this Wawa almost daily. Their coffee is delicious, their store is always immaculate, and their service is always phenomenal.
They have some cashiers here who genuinely can brighten your day up — Whether you’re a people person or not. Maureen in particular is a gem.
Their food selection is pretty top notch — as far as gas station food goes. I love their egg salad, and their fresh shortie rolls are great. I don’t find the breakfast food to be to my taste, but judging by the huge amount of people purchasing it I may just be the off one.
Overall — it’s rare that a gas station becomes a sort of «favorite stop,» but the Blakeslee Wawa is just that!

I love WAWA Buffalo chicken sandwiches … however this WAWA ALWAYS disappointed me! Everytime I went there their toaster was down or cleaning and they would consistently be out of breaded chicken!

Delicious sandwiches. In the middle of nowhere is this oasis of decent eats, even super late at night. Do the extra 3 minute drive off the highway, it’s worth it.

CROOKS! Crooks I tell ya!
I don’t know man… smh. For years, I’ve had a love affair with Wawa in general. The peach iced tea, the icees, the made-​to-​order sandwiches… what’s not to love?
Well, I’ll tell you what. I was visiting this location this past weekend and there was shady stuff going on at the gas pump. I went to pump some regular gas at pump #8, mind you I’ve been coming here for years so I know which button to press for regular, and they charged me for premium. Worst part is I pressed the regular button, left the latch on the gas nozzle, and got back in my car while my tank filled up. It wan’t until my tank was full and the receipt print that I noticed the discrepancy. After a long ordeal with the attendant inside, where she at one point disappeared to «check» the machine and then called us over after she «tested» the machine, I called customer service and was reimbursed with a gift card for the difference in gas price ($ 5, big whoop, but its the principle of the thing). I also reported the incident to the department of consumer affairs.
Moral of the story: I still love Wawa but I got my eye on them (especially at the pump).

The selection of snacks and beverages at Wawa always amazes me. The staff are friendly and the ease of pumping gas is hard to beat. Overall I’m a fan.

I think it goes without saying that Wawa automatically gets 5 stars, but after sampling pretty much everything on their menu at this point, I can say it with certainty: Wawa is a 5 star establishment.
Even with that nifty computer system, I never know what to get. A breakfast burrito with spinach and salsa? A 10″ hoagie with everything your heart desires? A mac and cheese? Soup for a rainy day? Anything is possible at Wawa.

Heading to PA to escape the Hurricane Sandy aftermath, my wife and I stopped in here to gas up before we got to her Brother’s house. And it was excellent. You have no idea how happy I was to see a gas station that didn’t have lines that stretched close to a mile long. It was a pretty uneventful trip, except for the fact that we didn’t have to wait for hours to put gas in our car. Pretty nice Wawa — nice to see one of these in NEPA.

Nothing too special… it’s Wawa. Probably one of the cleaner ones in the area complete with hot food at good prices. You’re not bringing a date here for dinner, but for that quick bite on the run it’s just fine. This along with the best gas prices in the area make the Blakeslee Wawa a winner!

This Wawa literally saved our Pocono’s vacation.
So on my recent weekend ski trip, one of the «friend of friends» insisted she would cook. If you’re going to INSIST on cooking, especially on a ski trip for 11 people, I’m expecting a banquet, especially if you send out an email asking about allergies. I expect you to stop skiing at 12 and go straight to Walmart to buy a turkey so you can start basting. I don’t need a 7-​course, but I’m expecting a 5-​course menu (maybe with wine pairing).
Well that didn’t happen. The person in question brought some homemade bread and her own butterknife.
After a perilous journey through a PA national park filled with shady skinny trees and threats of bears, we finally found the right way to our vacation home. Diana C., Lily Y. and I were all starving so we were lucky to find a Wawa, which happened to also be the first signs of civilization in over an hour.
Stumbling in, we immediately loaded up on liquids and attacked the self-​order sandwich counter. I ordered the Prime Rib Eye sandwich with a whole lot of fixings, got my receipt and paid for everything. Then I got a little greedy.
We were all curious about the sides, so I decide to pursue the meatballs. After putting in my order for meatballs, the screen asked me if I would like to have it over anything. I’m thinking sure… why not? Well, the only option it gave me was Mac n Cheese.
Whoa. Meatballs over mac and cheese? Am I about to gain all the weight back from snowboarding? Yes, so why not order three so I could goad Diana and Lily into this as well.
Well the small little plates were heavenly, especially in the civilization starved Poconos. We had quite the feast catered by Wawa between 5 – 6 people. If I were to come back to Poconos, I would definitely look to Wawa to do it all again.

The intro:
Wawa is a great convienience store/​petro station chain based outta Wawa, PA. I’ve always loved their stores no matter where I go [They are better than the Gas Stations and 7-​Eleven in a general comparison]. This is one of the spots that should recieve a 5 because of it’s great staff, freshly made food, from hoagies to hot sandwiches, to their own coffee and more, however some bumps knocked it down a notch.
The review:
Convieniently located at the intersection of Pennsylvania Route 940 and Pennsylvania Route 115, and few seconds away from Exit 284 on I-​80, the location is obviously great. The overall presentation when you pull up is great as well, clean gas pumps and well lit store is awesome! The restrooms are super clean, you won’t even feel like your in a gas station/​convienience store, the store floor is presentable as well, but I’d hope they simplify some stuff so I can know the price, overall the missing prices aren’t a big deal however I have to round it down to 4 stars instead of 5 because I as a customer should recieve better and clearer signage. As for the overall spaciousness, it’s great despite a slightly cramped petro pump area as compared to other rural/​suburban setting petro stations. But really, this is a must stop if you want to grab some stuff and go, or just fuel up or take a break on a long road trip… Short ones/​Local ones are definitely a must stop as well!

Great Wawa location where I have gone for several years to get lunch for a few days while staying at the expensive Split Rock Resort. Prefer fresh Wawa coffee and subs over any rubber pizza or liquid eggs. This is one of their full service locations with gas, however, usually just end up getting a refill at the TA across the border in NJ off Rt80. Never had a bad experience at this location, however, would be nice if they had the 2 foot long subs back.

This place rocks! It is open 24 hrs and when you need a turkey sandwich fix at 3am this is the joint for you. I like how you can build your own sandwich by using this computer and you can watch the employees build your sandwich. The store has so many goodies that you can spend more money than you had expected to spend. That’s alright! Load up on goodies and pig out in front of the fireplace with your love one.

Italian chicken philly. Mmmm. The way you melt in my mouth with your cheesey cheese and your chickeny chicken.
Wawa’s sandwiches totally pwn Sheetz.
The store is big and bright with a good selection of sodas and energy drinks. And chips, can’t forget the chips.
When my cousin was 51 cents short and had to run outside to get change from me the guy wasn’t a jerk.
And when I was throwing up in the car the people were more than happy to hook us up with some plastic bags and paper towels for the ride home.
You also save 5 cents a gallon if you pay cash. It’s win-​win-​win!
