I visited the CVS at The Wharf on September 22 and 29 to grab a few items for my hotel stay. While…read morethe location is convenient, especially if you're staying nearby and need quick essentials, there are some things worth noting. Pros: * Great location for travelers and locals in need of last-minute items. * Open late and within walking distance of hotels, restaurants, and the waterfront. Cons: * The store is often busy and disorganized. Shelves are not front-faced, and items can feel scattered. * The checkout process is chaotic. While self-checkout is available, most customers avoid it, and there's usually only one cashier, which slows everything down. * Prices are high, but that's expected in tourist-heavy areas. Still, it would be nice to see more effort in store presentation and customer flow. Final Thoughts: If you need something quickly and you're in the area, this CVS will do the job. Just adjust your expectations--you'll likely wait in line, pay a bit more, and find things slightly out of place. I recommend it only because there aren't many other options nearby.

This time one machine was out of service and one was being serviced.

Every time we have visited and there was a security guard, we were greeted in a very friendly manner. I mostly visit this Wawa for the Diet Raspberry and Diet Peach Iced Teas. I cannot find those particular diet flavors in FL so I stock up when I visit DC. We have purchased Lottery tickets when the machine was on or working, which is rare. I have never ordered made to order food here because I usually eat meals at the hotel or other restaurants in the area. I think my husband has purchased food here in between jobs and did not experience any issues. The staff seem okay here. I do not recall interacting much with the staff and I have usually paid for items with the self check out. There is a great selection of drinks and snacks considering how small the store is. The place is relatively clean considering the area outside.

If I'm ever missing a last minute ingredient for a recipe, this is my first stop. They have such a great selection and I've come in looking for: 1) fresh fruits & veggies 2) variety of seltzer waters 3) spices including pepper, etc. 4) hummus (not sure where they source it from, but it was delicious) 5) stamps 6) hygiene & first aid 7) ice cream 8) organic milk. In addition to the above, they have bread from Lyon Bakery (my favorite bakery in DC), a wide selection of frozen foods, a decent selection of raw ingredients and snack foods. The other thing I love is that they allow dogs in the store & even have a jar of dog treats to share. I know this store might not look like much from the outside, but give it a chance & go in. You won't be disappointed.

HOWEVER, very unfortunate to report that in 2026, there is still a card minimum. a 10$ card minimum. so if you were thinking about coming in for a quick bite or drink, you better have cash. i had just used all my cash at the laundromat and therefore wasnt able to buy my coveted chocolate chip cliff bar so tragic, so sad. but i live on ! anyhow, while the staff was kind, i despise business owners thrusting card fees onto their patrons. for shame !!
