The one on 441 near Lowes will be GC accessible.
The land has been leveled, construction to begin soon.

That is provided the unauthorized cart path is not closed off. I hope people do not read this and think it will be ok to cross 441 to get to this WAWA, or any other retailer back in this area.

It is not going to be closed off. The owner of the property is actually redoing the cart path and selling parcels as "golf cart accessible".

I think you may be confused.
There is no path needed to get to the future Wawa.
It is being built next to the cell tower in front of Harbor Chase, just go through the Paradise gate.
The path from the new Wawa to Lowes is being paved and developed.
The Aldis/Walmart path is now owned by Marion County parks and recreation.

Drove by yesterday on our way to Metro Diner. Must have been 20 plus cars. Looks like the elves are busy getting it ready, still no grand opening signs yet. Love their coffee drinks, Starbucks will be second soon

Wawa sells ethanol free gas. Ethanol destroys the fuel components of old cars so pure lead free is terrific. Thanks, Wawa.

Sad to think there is no pride in food and service but one day a great restaurant very large will open up here, do it right...great food, reasonable prices, efficient friendly staff and put the rest to shame and perhaps inspire others. That is not to say there are absolutely no good eating places apparently Rose Plantation excels at the moment. We are looking for restaurants with good chefs not short-order cooks at the moment. Perhaps there is a list.

I would not be looking for a great restaurant at a Wawa.

U go to Wawa’s For a quick latte or frozen drink, grab a breakfast sandwich for $1.50 or a toasted 6 “ sub for $2.99 that you customize, and eat driving. That’s not a restaurant, it convenient way on the go. Stopped by this morning on way to Ocala in and out in 8 minutes.

You said great food, reasonable price and efficient friendly staff. Pick two out of three.....profitability is key and your three requirements make that difficult, which is why we have what we have. Turners in Leesburg, Marks in Ocala are two that will get you great food and an efficient and friendly staff. Of course you need to define "reasonable price".....everyone has a different view.
