The addition of pizza to their menu seemed like a logical step, considering its widespread popularity and the ease with which it can be prepared using premade crusts and commercial-grade toppings. However, the implementation of this new offering has not been without its challenges.
Having personally sampled Wawa’s pizzas from various locations, including downtown D.C., Tenleytown, and Hyattsville, Md., I can attest to the difficulties faced by the staff during the transition period. Ordering pizzas before 4 p.m. can lead to delays and miscommunication among the busy team.
The process of preparing a pizza at Wawa is signaled by a beeping display screen at the pizza station, alerting the staff at other counters to start working on the order. However, this beep isn’t always acknowledged immediately, resulting in potential delays and frustration for customers.
To ensure a timely experience, it is advisable to order ahead unless you enjoy browsing through the Tastykake stand while waiting for your freshly baked pie. Wawa utilizes TurboChef ovens with high-velocity impinged air technology to significantly reduce cooking time. The pizzas bake in approximately five minutes, resulting in crispy crusts with a delightful golden brown color.
Although the ovens are incredibly efficient and consistent, any inconsistencies in the pizzas are usually due to human error. This is not to say that the staff is to blame for the overall quality of Wawa’s pizza. However, their approach and attention to detail can either enhance or diminish the final product.
One of my initial encounters with Wawa’s pizza emphasized the impact of human involvement in the preparation process. The employee responsible for the toppings displayed a minimalist approach, leaving a significant portion of the outer crust bare. This highlighted the mediocre quality of the crust itself, which, when inadequately developed, lacks the desired texture and flavor.
Apart from selecting toppings, customers can choose between a 14-inch and 16-inch pizza and opt for a garlic-seasoned crust. However, the latter choice should be approached with caution unless one has an affinity for an overwhelming garlic flavor. The initial disappointment fades away
