Drumroll, please!

This Friday, September 18 at 9 a.m. the new Wawa flagship store at Broad and Walnut streets will open its doors to the public. The new store is opening a full two months early in order to serve folks in town for the Pope’s visit to Philadelphia and World Meeting of Families.

The new flagship is Wawa’s most progressive store design prototype to date, with more than 4,000 square feet of space.

It’s truly one-of-a-kind with special design aspects like a corner entrance with a bronze canopy hanging above, floor-to-ceiling windows so guests can peek into the food preparation area and other designs that serve as an ode to the historic building that houses the shop.

The Broad Street store is also the first-ever location that has bar seating, too.

Grand Opening on Friday, Sept. 18

On Friday morning, the newest Wawa store will celebrate its opening with a fun first morning with a performance by members of the Philadelphia Orchestra, addresses from the CEO of Wawa and other Wawa professionals, words from Mayor Michael Nutter, the grand ribbon cutting ceremony, a visit from Eagles’ cheerleaders and Swoop, a fancy cake with Philly-centric decorations and more.

The new Center City shop will serve all of the Wawa fixings you know and love — hoagies, coffee, bagel sandwiches, mac and cheese, fast snacks and more.

Welcome to Broad and Walnut, Wawa!
