Potbelly Sandwich Works

Awesome sandwiches, prices are decent. Gets crowded but the line moves pretty fast. Basically you can get a sandwich twice as good as Subway or Quizno's for the same price, so no reason to go anywhere else. The Italian sandwich is especially awesome, so definitely try that.

Awesome hangout spot

When I come back into town, Potbelly is a favorite for catching up with people. It's cheap, delicious and a great place to hang out (sometimes for hours). Their "Wreck" sandwich is fantastic. Turns out you don't need a footlong to be full. And their milkshakes are great too.

Ambiance and Service 5/5
Food 5/5
Value 5/5

It gets really boring eating lunch at the same handful of places week in and week out.  That's why the opening of a new quick-service place in the area is so eventful.  But it's not very often that one of the old standbys updates its offerings and injects some excitement into my humdrum 1pm routine.  However, that is exactly what Potbelly has done by introducing the Mediterranean sandwich.  After one try, I became an instant fan.  Now that I've had six or seven, I can say that this is the best thing for sale at Potbelly--and yes, that includes the chocolate-chip cookie.  This sandwich is that good!

Mildly spicy hummus, roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, and cucumbers (on wheat and hold the feta for me, add onions please):  I love having a meatless sandwich option that actually tastes good.  I don't miss the cheese either.

Potbelly has promoted the heck out of this sandwich on buses, cabs, and even the radio, so I hope that it is here to stay.  I'll be eating one per week as long as they sell them.
