I was introduced to Potbellys on a delayed flight to Chicago with my sister. Like the scariest cat I am I tops her they would leave without her and like the boss she literally is she bought us a sandwich and chips to share and a strawberry milkshake that was oh so good. She got the wreck and I protested against the roast beef, which I don't like, and neither does she :/. She coaxed me to take a bite and I did. The smile was spontaneous and I gladly accepted my half which was huge. So yum. Fast forward to my life in Houston and I can rarely find a good Potbelly except this one. I got the turkey club sandwich, turkey, mayo, light mustard, lettuce. Bacon, and tomato. Get it! The chips are Zappos (sp?) and they are gooooood! The salt and vinegar chips are good. The milkshake was thick shake and delicious. I enjoyed my meal! That being said, there are a lot of Potbellys I Houston. All of them are bad except this one! I loved the sandwich here! The sandwich was very very good! I had it with a Sprite. I also ordered broccoli cheese soup, chili, and chicken pot pie soup. All the souls are so delicious! 10!10 would recommend. I also got a chocolate cookie and aemon cookie that was very nice! Will be back. read more

Why are you guys ALWAYS understaffed!!! I can order a sandwich 20 min ahead ans it still takes another 20 min of my waiting to get my food. It's completely unacceptable! If you want to wait almost an hour for mediocre sandwich, you've come to the right spot! read more

Never ordering from here again. I have had so many online ordering issues and have lost money. Im so done with this place. Too bad because they have good sandwiches but their app is terrible. read more

There's a Potbelly in my building downtown and I walk to go to this location specifically! Out of dozens of orders, there was one minor issue, and Chandra and team went out of their way to make it right. Now they know me by name and have a forever customer. read more

So many places to choose in this plaza. I was looking for a salad. So stopped in. We ordered Powerhouse salad with the delicious non-fat vinaigrette dressing and Italian sandwich. All good. Nice friendly staff. Causal place environment. read more

Potbelly's! I looooveeee this sandwich place! I remember eating here on a frequent basis when I first discovered it. A delicious sandwich for sure, customize how you want to eat it as well as the size. I will always remember them for selling the Whole dill pickles in the front, I used to buy one every time! lol A very outgoing, fun, atmosphere with wonderful service every visit. The have so many options to choose from on the menu. Definite must try if you are a sandwich lover like me. read more

I worked in the Houston center so this was a great sandwich restaurant for lunch. I ended up using the potbelly app because of the great location. If you work downtown it's great to grab a quick lunch read more

The best place to cool down come-in. Fun for the community app friendly love the service. read more

Potbelly - Quick byte to eat G.T.G - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

Great selection of food and the staff is welcoming and helpful. The restaurant was absolutely clean and cozy.

Conveniently located for those of us downtown in the Park Shops. There is almost always a huge line and for good reason - they make great sandwiches. Simply smelling the food while I was in there made me even more hungry and the smell aligns with the quality of the taste - simply put they are mouthwatering and delicious. I suggest the chicken and cheddar with bacon. read more

Horrible experience with them. We placed a group order three days ahead. They were 2 hours late, and multiple phone calls just got excuse after excuse. I will never use them again. Don't take large orders if you don't have the staff to meet your commitments. Here is the response when I emailed them: Nicole.Lewis@Potbelly.com The recipient's mailbox is full and can't accept messages now. Please try resending your message later, or contact the recipient directly. So again, pretty lousy customer service. The incompetence is stunning. The saga continues, but in a good way. I filed a complaint on their corporate website, and the entire order cost was refunded. So I appreciate that corporate did make it right. Would have been nice if the location manager had made any effort to do so. But at least they did refund the order cost. read more

Can't go wrong with a sandwich from here. Very friendly staff too. Only taking off a star because of the occasional wait time and small portions but sold 8/10-9/10. read more

Great sandwich shop. Thick bread! Plenty of meat and veggies. Employees were well mannered

It was a quick solid mall lunch, just what I expected. The calorie counts by the menu actually helped, I think, as I got a regular wreck rather than a large one. Broccoli cheddar soup was good. Crucially, it was open on Saturday when the rest of the food court seemed deserted. read more

Potbelly - "I can sing all them soooongs about Texas..." - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

Worst customer service, no one greeted me, stood around waiting for someone to come over and take my order. Was in the process of placing my order and was told to wait because they would forget how I wanted my sandwich made, sandwich was started and I specifically stated I did not want a hot sandwich, well they didn't care because that is exactly what I got. I explained that it was not what I wanted when I got it and it fell on deaf ears, the cashier made no attempt to apologize and just asked for payment. I paid because I had to get back to work. I will never visit this establishment or any other Potbelly. The staff was unfriendly and not courteous at all. read more

Sandwich was ok, service had a little to much attitude for my liking. Hard to find. Located inside high rise 2nd floor in food court.

Ummmmpotbelly!!!!!wow whew Lord what good sandwiches they have . I had a beef sandwich today and I was blown away by the taste of the beef and all the ingredients on the sandwich.Even the broccoli cheese soup was the bomb.Plenty of broccoli in the soup.The place was hard to get to but I got to it it's in the building with the Pappas Brothers on it and you go in on San Jacinto go up the escalators and walk back to the restaurant on the left side.But like I said they have some good grub there. read more

Great place to grab lunch downtown in the Houston Center. Fast service read more

Meh. I just thought Potbelly was okay. I wasn't really impressed with the menu, but I ordered a Mediterranean sandwich. The ingredient ratio was good, but the sandwich was dry and a little small for the price I paid. I'd go back once more to check one other sandwich and make sure it has mayo or some kind of moisture on it, but I wasn't really happy with my first visit. read more

Potbelly - Dry Mediterranean sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

They always get my order wrong. Rude workers and don't really check to make sure a customer has the correct food order.

I just tried them and I love it. The food was soooo delicious. Never tried them before and I will keep coming back to them. My new fav place yu all have gained a customer for life. read more

My favorite part about the experience at this place is just room to stretch out with your laptop and your food - those booths in the back corner are awesome for getting work done and stuffing your face, and I do love my multitasking. The food quality is meh. But I do love being able to add the hot peppers to my meh sandwich, that almost upgrades it to eh/alright. But then comes the soda fountain - this thing is haunted, the soda is always tasting wrong and I demand soda satisfaction. I was going to give one star but there are limited "fast food" options right here since (a) I boycott Chick Fil A due to their homophobic and religious right wing intolerance and (b) Doozo just makes bad food and they should feel bad for it. So in light of that they earn two stars. read more

The food here is okay but the service is slow and not much better than nonexistent. I stopped by one afternoon and waited about 5 minutes for someone behind the counter to acknowledge me, even though there were two people working, both of whom made eye contact. Eventually, when one announced he was going to the bathroom, the other walked to the counter and asked what I wanted. There was no acknowledgment of my order, a take out for two for a meeting. I questioned whether he actually heard me. Eventually the food arrived ready for me to carry out, but as I was handed the food, he never repeated the order to me. I dunno -- maybe he was psychic or had a total recall memory, but either way, it would have been nice to give a nod or a simple "ok" . Even though the food was okay, when a business is taking my money, I expect customer service that's more personable than I'd get if I were putting money in a vending machine. read more

Yes, I AM reviewing Potbelly WHILE I eat my sandwich, so pardon the crumbs. I'm like one of those people who really, really wants to try new things, but this conflicts with my fear of disappointment. So, when I find something I love, I have a tendency to stick with what I know. With that being said, I have only ever consumed three things from Potbelly: The Turkey Sandwich (in various forms such as thin, skinny, and original), the broccoli cheese soup, and the chocolate brownie cookie. I love all three of these things! The staff at this Potbelly are SUPER friendly and during lunch time when it is really busy, they knock the customers out pretty quick while maintaining their friendly attitudes. I'm sort of a regular at this point. Now, I just gotta get my check-ins to reflect this. read more

See all

I'm pretty sure their sandwiches are amazing but nothing compares to their ice cream sandwich. If you're in the area and needing something sweet you have to try the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich. It is very appetizing and gets the job done. I eat one at least 2-3 times a month I use to eat them 1-2 a week. I use to always order the salads but I ONLY come here for the sweets!!! read more

Potbelly - icecream sandwich mmmmm - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

Hello, so I work in the same building as this potbelly's and our building had a giveaway where they gave away 50 $10 gift cards for potbelllys. My coworker and I were two of the 50. Today we went in and just ordered milkshakes, order came to $5 and the woman at the front with the mole on her face had an attitude before we even spoke to her. She said the card was not working and I was willing to pay and she threw the gift card and said "Dont worry about it just go". I've worked in customer service and I know that sometimes you're having a bad day and just don't want to be bothered with people but don't take it out on people who haven't done anything but be nice and understanding to you. The girl told her coworker to "find someone else to do it" when her coworker asked for help with the front during lunch hour. I won't be coming back and I don't recommend anyone deal with her. Ask for someone else. Just a nasty attitude. Shake was good, ambiance was nice. The girl with the braids that helped, thank you. The girl with the mole, fix the attitude. read more

Conveniently located in the Park Shops for all you downtown folks. Probably a good place to go if you work in the area and don't need to wrestle with parking just to grab lunch. The staff here are friendly and the line moves at a decent pace. You can access the park Shops using the tunnel system if the weather is unfavorable. My favorites here are the Italian or turkey club. Happy eating! read more

Food is great, but catering was awful! Ordered food for my group and finally got a call from Potbelly ten minutes after it was scheduled to arrive to let me know it would be 2 hours late. Ridiculous. A voicemail or text earlier in the day so we could reschedule or make other plans would have simply been been good customer service. I did have a call earlier from Potbelly, but they did not leave a message or any info. I tried calling back throughout the morning but no one answered the phones. So very disappointing. read more

I go to breakfast most mornings with a co-worker who doesn't like breakfast food (I know, I can't understand it either). These guys made her a tuna on wheat this morning without blinking an eye. They not only didn't blink an eye, they did it cheerfully. Beyond that, they make that most wonderful of breakfast sandwiches the BELT (bacon, egg, lettuce and tomato). I like mine with a little hot sauce. Besides being a really great sandwich, I get a kick out of ordering a BELT for breakfast!! At lunchtime they have a guy that sits on a platform above the tables playing guitar. Not that great but nicely absurd for a sandwich shop in the mall. read more

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE their Sugar Cookies. It's just the perfect little dessert after their tasty sandwiches. The only con is that it's packing 550 calories in one cookie :( So I usually take a few pieces here and there and savor it through out the day. For sandwiches, I normally get the skinny turkey with mushroom or the mushroom melt with turkey, tomatoes, lettuce and a little mayo on top (551 calories equivalent to 1 sugar cookie, believe it or not). The bread is delicious and they toast it perfectly so the cheese is melted on just right. The mixture of cheeses are so savory...can't go wrong with this combo. read more

I love love the sandwiches. If you are in the downtown area this is a place to visit. My boyfriend order the Italian big which comes with capicola, mortadella, pepperoni, salami & minus the mozzarella cheese. is a big sandwich. totally for men. He enjoyed and was pleased with his choice. I order the Tuna salad minus the Swiss cheese. I got the regular and was plenty for me. The sandwiches are pretty good; (the bread is warm & fresh) as well as the chips. it is nice cozy place to sit, enjoy your food, bring your laptop and relax. It gets pretty crowded and crazy around lunch time. read more

Came here today for a late lunch after the crowd cleared. It's like an upgraded Subway. I got the grilled chicken and cheese with bacon flatbread, chips and a drink for $9. I give it high marks for taste, I definitely didn't feel cheated. And they have great seating. I found a cozy booth that let me get some study time in. Winner! read more

Potbelly's always gets 5 stars for me. The Wreck is a solid sandwich, although I have ventured out to the skinnies and less calorie options lately. This location is great. Very friendly service and management. I work right in the building and I try not to eat here everyday, but it is tough. read more

Right by my work, great staff and the food is pretty good too. I go here at least once a week and it's a pretty solid sandwich. Hits the spot! read more

I had lunch there yesterday for the first time with a co-worker. The potpie soup was actually really good and then a roach crawled across our table!! Told someone at the cash register and there didn't seem to be any concern or urgency. We threw our food away and left. Nope I will not be going back! read more

I'm not a fan of sandwiches, but whenever I pass by Potbelly, it smells so yummy, so I decided to be a little daring and try this place out for lunch. Looked at the menu and compared to Subway or Quiznos, there isn't much variety, but I decided to get the roast beef sandwich. Now I know what the fuss is about with this place. The warm sandwiches that Potbelly makes taste fresher and yummy. I also liked the price, of course it differs from what sandwich you get, but my lunch was under five bucks. The portion of the regular sandwich also lasted me for dinner, so I would rather go here than a Subway or Quiznos. read more

Love this place. Since I moved in on 2016 Main St. one of the neighbors suggested this place. OMG! Its a great place and has a home feel. The employees are very friendly and make you feel that I am making the sandwich with them. I love the bread and the add on ingredients are wonderful to spice up your sandwich. I will definitely suggest this place to my friends and family when they come by to visit me. read more

Ordered a meatball sub, it was so dry that I just threw it out. Odd since it should come with sauce. No provolone either even after I asked for it. Lunch I guess is a bag of chips. read more

This is a great lunch option for downtown workers like myself. My favorite place in the Houston Park Shops. All of the sandwiches i have had are good, but the Wreck and the Mediterranean are two of my favorites. Good food and friendly service every time. Don't forget to grab a milkshake on your way out, they are top notch! read more

Please try the chicken enchilada soup (they discontinued the chicken southwest soup but this is basically the same thing). Add some oyster crackers in there and you're golden. And to reward yourself for picking such a great soup, go ahead and get their amazing oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. It is worth so much more than the $1.25 they charge. I'm not even a cookie fan. read more
