Reviews
My first time trying out this sandwich chain, and my first impression – I like Subway better. Way better. I mean yes, Potbelly also has soup options, but sandwich wise, I wasn’t impressed.
It’s a little more expensive than Subway, and the sandwich ingredients are way less too.
The atmosphere however is tons better, an 8/10 as compared to a generic Subway being 6/10.
I got a refund after reporting this and bringing back the sandwich. I will not be coming back here!
I’ve been to this location three times. Each time, I’ve interacted with different team members. The personalities and friendliness of the team there is top notch. I’ve had some good laughs and conversations with them. The location is always clean, the service is fast, and the sandwiches are tasty!
My go to, you ask!??…. “The Wreck!” Make no mistake about it. Thank me later! The sandwich is beastly good!! Loaded with just about every meat and topping, they have to offer. You can go full Monty or scale it down to your liking, but either way it is mad delicious and you can’t go wrong with this sandwich.
You can’t go wrong with this sandwich shop and I recommend!
However, the last 3 times I have ordered from this Potbelly they have gotten my to-go order meaningfully incorrect and it’s frustrating when you get home and open up your bag and it’s nothing like what you ordered. The latest example: I ordered a Turkey Avocado sandwich with cheddar and double meat on thin cut white. I got a sandwich with literally no meat or cheddar cheese – literally just avocado and some orange sauce and maybe feta (not sure what) on wheat bread. One other sandwich was also made incorrectly with hot peppers (not ordered) which my kid won’t eat. I called the store and spoke to a nice manager who was filling in here and I was promised a refund. Unfortunately – I have gone through this process here more than once in the past and so far have never gotten any credit or refund. I will keep going but I wish they would figure out how to get better at order accuracy.
However the cookies are always delicious. Don’t miss those.
UPDATE: I reached out again and they refunded the order above, and I was happy with the service.
Note to the general manager/franchise owner – whoever the manager was on the afternoon of June 12, 2023 at 4-4:30pm needs at best some serious retraining!
HOWEVER, I got home with my sandwich and the they didn’t even put any chicken salad on the sandwich! It was just lettuce! How is this even possible???
