Wawa Closes Drive-Thru Location In Bucks Co.

BUCKS COUNTY, PA —If you go to the drive-thru at the Wawa in Falls Township, you won't be able to pick up a coffee or a hoagie any longer.

After nearly four years, the standalone store in the Morrisville section of Falls Township is permanently closed. It was the first of its kind in Pennsylvania.

The Wawa drive-thru was located at the intersection of West Trenton Avenue and Pine Grove Road in Falls Township. It opened during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Wawa is constantly testing new concepts to meet the needs of our customers. While this drive-thru location is closing, we still have two active drive-thru locations in Allentown, and Largo, FL., where we continue to test and learn," Wawa spokeswoman Jennifer Wolf said.

A Wawa in Falls Township's Morrisville section continues to operate as a full-service store serving the community, Wolf said.

Wawa officials developed the concept for the 1,800-square-foot store to let customers drive through and place orders for food and other items without leaving their vehicles.

The modern-looking building featured a limited menu focused on quick food and drink options.

"Wawa is committed to increasing convenience and providing new options for service while keeping safety and comfort top of mind," the company said in a news release at the time of the opening. "Wawa hopes to learn from the layout, workflow, and traffic flow at this location, as it continues to explore alternatives for longer-term application to stores post-COVID-19."
