No one’s pulling into a gas station expecting the best breakfast of their life. But every now and then, places like Wawa prove you don’t need a fancy brunch spot to get something filling and decent. And while other fast-food chains will easily run you $10 or more for something similar, at Wawa you can find tasty breakfast staples for under $6.
Sizzli Breakfast $5 Deal
Wawa has the solution for enjoying breakfast like a champion without breaking the bank. The convenience store introduced the $5 Big Breakfast Deal in February 2025, and it quickly gained traction with early risers. Available from 5 a.m. to 11 a.m., the deal includes one of 10 varieties of Sizzli sandwiches (many are included in this list), a hash brown, and a hot or iced coffee.
Sausage, Egg & Cheese Sizzli Burrito
A breakfast burrito is almost always a great start to a day, especially if it’s dirt cheap. Individually priced $3.09, you can have the Sizzli burrito made of pork sausage, scrambled eggs and cheese as part of the $5 breakfast deal with a hash-brown and coffee.
Sausage, Egg & Cheese Sizzli Croissant
You might not expect miracles when you order a stacked croissant sandwich from a gas station hot bar, but Wawa’s Sizzli version might surprise you. According to taste testers, it features a flaky, buttery croissant, unusually flavorful and well-textured sausage, plus cheese and eggs. If you want it on its own, it costs $3.99 — but it’s also included in the $5 deal.
Sausage, Egg & Cheese Sizzli Biscuit
If you’re more of a biscuit person than a croissant fan, Wawa also has a Sausage, Egg & Cheese Sizzli Biscuit, which includes the same hearty combo — just with a more American breakfast base.
Omelet and Bacon Hoagie
Wawa’s hoagies are the reason the store is taken seriously as more than just a gas station stop, and the Omelet and Bacon Hoagie is a good pre-11 a.m. option. It comes with an omelet, cheese of your choice, and bacon in a six-inch shorti roll. The whole hoagie costs $5.89.
