From the Georgetown BID:

“Ho, ho, hoagie! Philadelphia-based Wawa flew into Georgetown today at 1222 Wisconsin Ave NW–its second DC location. Grab a free coffee, sample the Georgetown-inspired Bulldog Double Shot latte, and trigger that breakfast sandwich habit you’re bound to develop. But this isn’t just your average Wawa. Did we mention new items like milkshakes and custom sandwiches? We fancy.”

I’ve been getting tons of inquiries asking for updates on the coming Columbia Heights Wawa. I’m told that building permits have finally been issued and “hard construction” begins after the holidays. If all goes according to plan they should be open by May 1st.

And thanks to Eric Kmetz for passing on word about the Georgetown Wawa: (more…)

Thanks to Rachel for sending. Patagonia is currently located at 1048 Wisconsin Ave, NW:

“Housed in an old factory that once produced industrial-size scales, our store carries a nice assortment of quality Patagonia clothing and gear for outdoor sports, travel and everyday living. A center for environmental activism, we hold regular events, provide meeting space for nonprofits and have an energized staff that advocates for conservation on Capitol Hill and volunteers with groups like the Anacostia Watershed Society.

Anyone know what’s going to happen to that cool location?

We source our coffee from Counter Culture Coffee and our pastries are delivered fresh every morning from Hawthorne Fine Pastries. We’re super excited to meet our local D.C. community!

Thanks to all who emailed about the Georgetown Wawa coming soon signage after seeing this morning’s post on the one coming to Adams Morgan. Georgetown looks to be opening any day now. The takeover is real. Wawa opened their first D.C. location on 19th Street way back on December 14th 2017. Blessed be his name. Stay tuned for an exact opening date as soon as we know it.

Ed. Note: Progress seems to be slow going for the Columbia Heights Wawa but updates when we learn more about the timing their too.
