The first location in the Tampa area opened in Pinellas Park back in 2013. Now they're everywhere.  Wawa's cheap gas prices and sandwiches have been a hit with Floridians.

Curbside pick up and drive thru service is keeping many restaurants alive during the pandemic. Now Wawa is getting into the drive thru business, according to Fox 35 in Orlando. The first drive-thru Wawa will open in December and offer both drive-thru and curbside pickup service. In fact, that's ALL they will have. You won't be able to walk in to get that sub or pack of gum. You'll be able to order things like coffee and a hoagie via "state of the art technology," which I'm guessing means an app.

They're trying this out in a Pennsylvania location first. Then they'll try it in New Jersey. If it catches on and works out, maybe we'll see them at Wawa locations here in the Tampa area.
