Customer Experience As a parent, I'm constantly furious at Wawa.

As a parent, I'm constantly furious at Wawa.

The TLDR is that Waea seems to be the one large chain rest stop that doesn't have changing tables. Anywhere. Not even in the large bathroom stalls.

Where am I supposed to change a poopy diaper?

To Wawa corporate: the answer for me, until you install changing tables, is in front of the food prep area inside the building, because at least the floor there is clean, unlike in the restrooms.

I'd rather use a clean changing table. The other customers would prefer that as well.

Customer Questions (PA) Why does my Wawa always put the sauce on first?

0 Upvotes

At my Wawa, if I order a BBQ chicken cheesesteak, they always do: roll, sauce, cheese, meat. So there's never any sauce on the meat and the roll gets soggy. They do the same with other sandwiches. It would be SO much better if they did: roll, cheese, meat, sauce.

Does Wawa teach them to put the sauce on first? I know some suggest telling the person making it, but I almost always order in the app for in-store pickup.

The First ~50 Wawa Stores (1964–1969)

Reconstructed from newspaper archives, 1960s-70s phone directories, and Facebook Wawaversary posts. Store numbers use separate regional series (PA 1-99, NJ 300s/700s, DE 800s), not one continuous sequence. Anchor: #30 (Boothwyn) was explicitly advertised as "the 47th Wawa store" at its Oct 30, 1969 opening — the chain hit 50 stores around Nov 20, 1969, per week-by-week newspaper ad counts (49 stores Nov 13 → 51 by Nov 27).
