Can we say busy busy busy? Â And I am not even mentioning the poor setup of this place!
I love their sandwiches for lunch, but this location is always one of the busiest. Â I try to avoid it, if I can. Â You never know where the line exactly is, or you have to crawl over people to get there. Â It is a bit confusing during the lunch rush.
The 2 stars is only for the price/value for the sandwiches here. The service has been good here most days but do recommend you get here by 11:30am for lunch if your on a tight schedule at work. It seems that their Corporate office has decided to make sandwiches smaller throughout the chain and no one will notice... I noticed.
Review Source:I walk past here every day and have been doing so for a year and a half, and I finally stopped in to grab a breakfast sandwich. I wasn't terribly impressed and I'm not sure I'll be back. I know b-fast isn't their specialty, but the bread was pretty dry, the sandwich was lackluster, and there were very limited b-fast beverages. (Hot coffee or bottled orange juice. I guess it could be worse...).
The employees here were friendly and fast. The food just wasn't that great.
$3 and change for a breakfast sammy isn't bad, but I'm not sure the taste of it will lure me back.
I totally dig this Potbelly's for several reasons:
1. Amazing outdoor seating. Â Gets tons of sunlight.
2. They're not skimpy on the toppings.
3. Friendly and efficient staff.
4. Great selection of drinks and treats.
5. The long-haired hippie dude that sings awesome jams.
There is another Potbelly's just one building away from my work but my friends and I make the trek across the river to this location because it is superior in almost every way. Â We come here almost weekly. Â Big fan.
"I would like The Wreck salad with absolutely no cheese on it".
I make this statement at least 6 times while I'm speaking to the various counter workers. Â Today was no different.
When I was handed my salad, there was blue cheese on it. Â All over it. Â I LOATHE blue cheese. Â I said to the worker "there's cheese on it, and I asked at least 5 times for no cheese on this". Â
The next comment said to me was brilliant:
"Oh, I thought when you said no cheese, you just meant the swiss cheese"
*crickets*
"absolutely no" = just one of them (to this Potbelly location)
I'm a Jimmy John's girl, but there are several Potbelly's closer to my office so I do switch it up. Â This is my favorite one.
Potbelly's is good, and who doesn't love the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies?
This location is great - the staff is awesome, and the musician they have during the lunch rush is really good as well.
They have tables outside on Riverside Plaza, which I am looking forward to when it finally warms up.
