And of course, that happened to me.
I ordered on the potbelly app now this is what I don’t get. They tell you to go to the shelf look for your name take your order and go. This was not the case. I go in there was pretty crowded. Gave them plenty of time to have the sandwiches the ready, and yet I still have to wait for someone to help me. There was a shelf there, but nothing was on the shelf. It was behind the register of the counter. there was a line there I had to wait for someone to help me or just to hand me the food. I waited and I’m going to tell you, she was not very friendly. So I have one suggestion for potbelly, go back to putting it on the shelf so I don’t have to deal with your employees, they were not having a good day.
Okay, maybe I can understand the substitution. BUT TO LEAVE AN ONION SHELL IN THE SANDWICH??!!!! made it whole lot worse.
In general, an unpleasant experience for someone who tried Potbelly for the first time.
However, I had an experience that left me quite surprised. I purchased a turkey sandwich, which is usually a reliable choice. To my dismay, the sandwich came with tomatoes that were hard and included the core, or stem scar, which made them difficult to eat. I was quite taken aback by this, as I didn’t expect such an oversight in the preparation of my sandwich.
Despite attempting to eat it, the tomatoes were simply too hard, and it affected the overall enjoyment of the sandwich. I was very surprised and disappointed that such a garnishment was placed on my sandwich. Additional notes from a visit I made yesterday giving this location. Another chance. **Review of Potbelly’s: A Disappointing Lunch Experience**
updated 7/19/24
I re-visited this Potbelly’s, a place I’ve frequented since childhood when they started across from Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago. Yesterday, I decided to try their new lunch plan, which consists of a sandwich, a drink, and a bag of chips. I added a cup of chili, expecting a reasonably tasteful meal. Unfortunately, what seemed like an economic value turned out to be a mathematical bait and switch.
Upon ordering the meal and paying close to $17, I experienced sticker shock. Sitting down at the table, I realized I had received an extremely small sandwich that was poorly made and didn’t taste good. When I confronted the counter, they informed me that the meal deal included a skinny sandwich. “Skinny” is an understatement for what I received.
Adding to my disappointment, when I opened the bag of chips, I found that only 25% of the bag was full; the rest was just air. For $17, this felt more like a kids’ meal than a meal suitable for an adult.
In addition, the chart they show you is deceiving. It displays images of the skinny sandwich, the regular size sandwich, and the large sandwich. This leads customers to believe they are getting more than just a quarter of a sandwich. When I went back to the counter to ask what was going on, they had no explanation. This bait-and-switch tactic is extremely misleading and unfair to consumers.
In short, the quality of food for the price point is definitely not worth it. The sandwich was subpar, and the value was disappointing. I understand that the economy is rough, but charging this much for a poor-quality meal feels like a money grab.
Moreover, the staff at this location was unfriendly and dismissive when I raised my concerns, essentially telling me to take it or leave it. Moving forward, I’ll be searching elsewhere for a sandwich. For what they charge for this skimpy meal, I could probably have a better quality meal somewhere else.
The management at this location needs to hire more employees for the volume of business they do here, and have processes for bringing in backups when demand surges or employees are absent. There are so many other choices for decent fast food in the surrounding half mile area.
My primary concern stems from the method of correction, as it did not fully address the issue of potential cross-contamination. This practice is particularly concerning for individuals with allergies or strict dietary requirements. While I acknowledge that I could have insisted on a completely new sandwich at the time, I was reluctant to create a disruptive situation and felt uncomfortable escalating the matter further in front of other customers.
I am sharing this feedback in the hope that it can contribute to a review of food preparation protocols and staff training regarding order accuracy and the handling of incorrect ingredients, especially when dietary preferences or restrictions are involved. Ensuring that such errors are rectified in a manner that upholds food safety standards and customer satisfaction is, I believe, paramount.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
