Wawa
Fast CasualAbout Wawa
Part of the well-known chain, this Tenleytown Wawa keeps things quick and casual with hot food, drinks, and shelves of grab-and-go snacks. Reviewers who love it point to fast, tasty food and hardworking staff who often go above and beyond, with one out-of-state college newcomer crediting it for making the move to DC a little easier.
Sitting just down the street from a high school, the store gets genuinely busy and chaotic around the start and end of the school day, and the experience can be hit or miss. While many appreciate the team's effort during the rush, others have run into slow or frustrating service. It's a practical, no-frills stop best suited to those who know what they're after.
