Once The WaWa on Liberty Street & Revere Avenue, Villa Park
My favorite WaWa of all. My sister lived across the street
back in the day. I drove by often on the way to places.
In the Blizzard of 1996 I walked here to use the Mac Machine
and get coffee and hoagies and cigarettes.
This was open 24 hours for many years until the city made
them close at 11PM. This place had some nice folks working
in it and I wish them all the best wherever they are now:)

My Dad, Dr. Vento, once pulled into this WAWA to pick up a paper. Left the car running, came out, the car was gone. Fortunately, it was recovered not far away and not damaged. As a kid, I remember my father going to the train station every nite to pick up the NY Daily News at 11:00 PM. It was the next day's paper w/o advertisements. If he were alive today, he would be an internet news freak. Always reading a paper or listening to WOR AM radio. He was from NYC, so our TV antenna always pointed North. Good times...
Mack and Noel, I still thought it was the WaWa. Alway got a coffee and the paper there in the morning. My sons loved their hoagies.

It was a WAWA Up to about a year ago. It was busy place. Since it was purchased by Indians business has dropped off. As a WAWA it always had Trenton Police present now not a Police car is present. I was told that WAWA gave them free coffee. The new owners Pantry Pride stopped the free coffee.
