However, perhaps the coolest thing about this new shop is its focus on design. Potted plants are everywhere and there’s even an entire wall covered with living greenery. The store also is studded with copper fixtures and boasts a beautiful vaulted ceiling. You can also expect fast, free WiFi.

It may be a convenience store, but this giant Wawa is one of the coolest new shopping destinations in America.
