It all started when Wawa announced free coffee every Tuesday during the months of November and December back in 2020. Jax and Taylor decided to venture out and try coffee for the very first time and they were hooked… after a few attempts. Coffee Tuesday became one of the most exciting parts of the week so the group just had to expand. Slowly but surely we formed the core group of 5 that we have today.
Today Coffee Tuesdays are more than just a quick stop at Wawa’s parking lot for a free cup of joe. It is about bringing friends together and exploring different coffee shops and new drinks. We take the time and opportunity to review every drink we purchase. We have grown a reputation as Newark’s most loved coffee reviewers.
Visit our Instagram every Tuesday to see what we have to say about your favorite local coffee shop. Stay tuned throughout the week for lots of videos, good vibes, and caffeine.

Bryce Leslie
Hey all! My name is Bryce and I was officially added as a member of the group around April last year and I’ve loved every part of the journey so far. I’m a senior Computer Engineering major at University of Delaware, finishing up my last semester this spring! I love sports and anything to comes with being in the outdoors (hiking, camping, kayaking, and I just learned how to ski). My normal coffee order is probably a vanilla cold brew with oat milk. The best coffee I’ve ever had was a Pooh Bear Iced Latte at Grounds For Thought in Bowling Green, Ohio. Can’t wait to start exploring more coffee around the country… cheers!
Daniel Toms
What’s up y’all! I was the last member to be added to the team. My love of coffee started way back in 5th grade when I began drinking a cup of coffee from my Keurig everyday before school. Probably wasn’t the best idea to dowse myself in caffeine before having to sit for hours but I survived. So, that’s why I keep drinking coffee because why stop what’s working. Anyways, I am an Exercise Science major from University of Delaware and love doing anything active. Some of my favorite things to do are explore new places, get lost in the woods, play sports of any kind, and of course drink lots and lots of coffee!
Jack Roff
With captions and music loved by moms and homeschoolers everywhere, Jack has become a Man of The Bean. Starting as the third member of Coffee Tuesdays, he reviled the revolting brown bean brew at first. However, since this time Jack has begun a true love affair with caffeination. He enjoys getting sick shots of the crew drinking their assorted beverages at assorted coffee shops. Be sure to look out for his reviews of other drinks sold at coffee shops in the afternoon. Such as warm milk and tea, because the afternoon is no time for coffee.
Jax Myers
Hey everyone! I’m Jax, one of the original members of Coffee Tuesdays. For me, it all started with free coffee every Tuesday at Wawa, but now Coffee Tuesdays means so much more! My go to coffee order is definitely a vanilla latte with oat milk, hot or iced. I am currently studying Elementary Education at University of Delaware. I love being outside, playing sports, scrapbooking, and documenting my life through videos and film photos! (Fun fact, my photo was featured on the Wawa Instagram.)
Taylor Whiteman
As another founding member of Coffee Tuesdays, I’m so proud of how far this group has come! I never thought that we’d have a website, let alone an Instagram page. Growing the Instagram account has been a fun project, especially when I get to buy lots of coffee. Expect to find me on Main St. sipping on a Almond’s Kiss latte from Brewhaha, or a Vanilla cream cold brew from Starbucks!
