Wawa announced the official test and pilot of several new dinner menu items including a new burger, pastas, entree platters and more.
All dinner items, with the exception of the Heat and Eat Meals, become available after 4 p.m. on the touchscreen ordering system, offering customers the ability to select their preferred ingredients and customize meals to their liking.
Currently available at select stores, the new offer is expanding rapidly across Wawa’s operating area of six states and Washington, D.C., and will be accessible for delivery and curbside service in the coming months.
“We’re grateful to our customers who frequent Wawa for breakfast, lunch and grocery items, and are proud to introduce this new platform as another solution for making dinner easily accessible and satisfying for everyone,” said Mike Sherlock, Chief Product Marketing Officer, Wawa. “We always strive to listen to our customers, so we’ve spent time testing menu items in select stores, gathering feedback and perfecting our recipes with the goal of providing a family, group of friends, etc. the ability to select their preferred dinner while still enjoying a meal together.”
