Since we have had good experiences at other WAWAs in other cities, then we expected to experience the same here. We had reached the halfway point from Orlando to Miami and got hungry. It was late at night. We knew that they would be open.
We ordered our favorite Turkey and bacon toasted sandwiches as we always do but these weren't as good as the others that we have had. Things happen and we can overlook something like that.
But the next thing to happen was unforgivable in my book. The ladies bathroom had no toilet paper!! I went to ask the guy at the counter for TP and he said he didn't have any extra but that I should go over to the coffee stand and grab some napkins there. I went over there but there were no napkins of any kind there. I went back to the employee but he said they must be out of TP. He didn't even check the men's bathroom for extra. You think he would have checked stock items when he started his shift and ordered some. Luckily, my daughter had extra tissues and napkins in her handbag to save the day for both of us. Future visitors to the bathroom would be in trouble.
I would not stop in here again...
Read moreVery nice rest stop in Fort Pierce Wawa, Inc. is an American chain of convenience stores and gas stations located along the East Coast of the United States. Approximately 200 of the 900 WaWa stores are located in the state of Florida. This particular store is located off Fl 70, also known as Okeechobee road, to the east of both the Florida Turnpike and US 95 on the south side of the road. It was built within the last few years and is relatively new as of this review. There are about 20 gasoline pumps under cover to the north of the main building and 5 tesla chargers to the south side of the building. The area and outside was relatively clean even though it was consistently busy when we were there. The inside of the store was clean and the staff was friendly. They have items to purchase, a place to order prepared food/drinks and restrooms. We ordered a chicken bowl. It was prepared quickly and was quite good and reasonably priced. There were several, both standup and 4 person sit-down, tables outside and parking all around the structure. Overall, I would recommend this as a nice place to stop on your...
Read moreThe chain of Wawa convenience stores have been popping up all over Florida and they are the greatest convenience store by far. From fresh subs and sandwiches as well as salads, shakes and many items most convenience stores don't carry. Also they are all fairly new. I've been to many of them on the West and East Coast but when it comes to cleanliness... Fort Pierce Wawa by the expressway is the filthiest one I have yet to see. I've been coming from the keys to here back and forth to see my daughter as well as moving here recently and there is trash on the floor I have seen here weeks ago! In the bathrooms I do not think they have ever been wiped down and if you look at the Chrome on the fixtures there is such a build-up of filth that it has shyed me away from eating there anymore. I see a lot of employees without something to do and they should vacuum sweep and mop and scrub and bring that place back to the way it should be! With this pandemic going on, by law there's supposed to disinfect hourly and there is no possible way visually if that's happened since it's been open with the...
