Great sandwiches, however beware of the hot peppers. I typically like a little heat behind the flavors but these hot peppers are hotter than my local Mexican placed hottest salsa. No reason the hot peppers should burn like habanero. Most Italian hot peppers aren't that. I understand I ordered it and got what I ordered but holy shit. Almost made the sandwich inedible. read more

Ordered delivery and I'm super disappointed. I only got one slice of turkey and lettuce looked terrible. Not worth $13 read more

Potbelly - Can I get some turkey with the my sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I always love getting my Potbelly Craving fix with the Mediterranean on flatbread. For me, this sandwich is my "go to" and my favorite. There's something about the hummus, chicken, onions, and the flavors combined together. I also love the cool vibe of the interior and of course the dessert options. I had to get a Dream Bar as well. It was delicious. read more

Tonight I wanted a sandwich and I wanted it from a place i haven't been yet. Potbelly check those 2 boxes so I smashed it. It was decent...I'd say a solid 3.5 stars. I got a regular size Avo Turkey w/ pickles and deli mustard. The sandwiches are toasted, which is great, and I left full and satisfied which is always a plus in my book. The store was clean and the staff were great and personable. Is it a place to write home about? Nah...but it's not bad, especially for $10. On a scale of 1 - 10,...I might run into you again sometime but I won't force it to happen. It was fun while it lasted. read more

Very rude staff. Cannot be a coincidence that both times I have been in here, not often, since it's been months since the last, but both times were interrupted by very opinionated and rude staff. read more

Do you know what I really appreciate? Excellent customer service, which is exactly what I just experienced at this location. I was a dumb dumb and ordered something incorrectly and they insisted on remaking the sandwich for me, even though they really didn't have to because, again, I'm the dummy. Thanks, Potbelly, for being so nice about it. read more

Terrible cat glasses tattoos old lady rude about adding condiments to my sandwich Only my 2nd time ever here, acted like I was suppose to know the rules of their line lol Terrible sandwich and service lost my business forever!!

Just got the Apple Wanut salad. Lettuce was limp and browning. Fit for the trash. Very disappointing.

This place is horrible not only did they give me the wrong sandwich once but twice and they gave my friend the wrong sandwich as well ! I'm not coming back ! read more

food was good, typical potbelly meal. but the customer service was horrid. the first girl immediately had an attitude towards us when taking our order, was annoyed and had a tone to any question we had, she kept cutting us off. and then after would talk and laugh with her coworker. and then we went to ask about the drink dispenser because it was off and the guy did not say one word to us, didn't even let us say anything, and pushed past us to turn it on and walked away again without saying a word. i would be more understanding if the place was busy, but there was not a single customer in there. completely ruined our morning. everyone in there had such a bad attitude and vibe it was so disappointing when i just wanted to have a nice lunch with my fiancé. read more

Everyone was so nice there! I really appreciate the service the food was to die for and the dining room and outdoor dining room was absolutely spotless! Yes, there were messy customers but the area didn't have that dingy feel about it. I'm definitely coming back when I'm in Tempe and treating myself here! read more

Potbelly - Sandwiches Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

amazingly tasty sandwiches at a reasonable price. Very good quality and clean store and friendly staff.

I am putting 2.5 stars because I Love this place, the sandwich and meat ratio. Today was sadly a disaster. The meat and bread ratio was sad. More bread than meat. That being said, I ordered the "loaded baked potato" soup. Was completely watered down. I only know that because I walked next door to safe way and poured myself the SAME soup. Only $5 cheaper but BETTER. I did not find a hair in my sandwich but if you pay $10 for a sandwich and $5 for a soup. I'll go to Safeway next door. Good customer service. read more

Waste of money, worst sandwich in the world save yourself the trip and go to another sandwich shop. Hardest bread my tooth almost broke. Not to mention the salad smelled like it had been in a fridge for a long time. read more

I always order the same things, either a turkey breast sandwich or any of their salads, I'm always satisfied with either. I'm not sure if it's seasonal but I do love their potato soup, it's not always an option when I go. I've only tried their Oreo shake once and it was just ok, it tasted more like a vanilla shake and I didn't really get any Oreo chunks or flavor at all. read more

Potbelly is my new favorite sandwich chain. The food is always amazing and consistent. I am somewhat of a creature of habit, so when I find a thing I like from a place, I typically get that same thing and expect it to be more or less the same regardless of which location I'm at. Potbelly does this amazingly well. I've been to three or four locations and always have a great meal. The staff are always very helpful and quick, a necessity for this chain. Every location I have been to gets HORRENDOUSLY busy. This is at no fault to the restaurant itself - it's just a byproduct of being a popular sandwich shop in a busy area. I'm partial to their Turkey Avocado sandwiches, but I decided to try their new pastrami sandwich and I was pleasantly surprised. I have been lamenting the availability of a solid pastrami sandwich in my area, but I think I've found it. They also have some amazing shakes that hit the spot if a sandwich and optional side don't quite fill you up. This location was amazing, and we happened to just beat the lunch rush around 1:00 PM or so. My one complaint about this location is the area that it's in. I sat in traffic for ten minutes when I was a couple hundred feet away, partially due to traffic and a train. There's nothing that can be done about this, just something to keep in mind when planning a trip to this location. Great spot! read more

Great food that's made to order. Plenty of options but not too many. Clean restaurant and friendly staff. Great for a quick bite! Highly recommend the chocolate brownie cookie, Mac and cheese and the wreck with all the toppings. The hot peppers are my favorite!!! I buy the jars and give them away at Christmas to friends and family and everyone loves them! read more

Great meatball subs. Sauce could use more flavor and location isn't the greatest. Need to hire more people to help out

I really liked the Pot Pie soup. Yes, it was salty, and normally too much salt can turn me off, but the crumbled pie crust topping was a perfect addition. I also enjoyed my Mediterranean sandwich, as the ingredients were definitely welcome- the artichoke, fired roasted tomatoes and feta were a perfect combo. Plus the bread had a good crust to chewiness ratio. Pretty tasty, Potbelly. :) read more

When I get asked to pick a lunch spot at work for all of us to order from, I freak out. I've been told my boss is extremely picky with places and they have to be good or else it just ruins his lunch. I got asked the other day and I yelped nearby takeout. This place had a 4 stars at the time so I decided to throw it out there and see if anyone had been here. None of us have ever tried this place so we placed our orders in and I just hoped for the best. EVERY SINGLE COWORKER said their food was delicious! I absolutely loved mine and it was super filling. Thank you potbelly for not letting me down! read more

Clean sandwich shop! Not always my go-to for a sandwich, but they are very good! A BOGO Free cookie deal brought me in for National Sugar Cookie Day where they offered a free cookie if you bought a sugar cookie. Their cookies are a solid size and chewy and soft. Potbelly also offers a rewards program via their app. read more

I will never go here again, in fact I've emptied out my rewards and do not plan on returning. The sandwiches are delicious I WIL GIVE THEM THAT but the peeps they hire is ridiculous and it doesn't fail when they are the LEAST busy that they care the LEAST! No Joke! The peeps behind the counter not only did NOT give me my rewards credit but when I came back and asked for it they were like IDK how to use the APP. So bye-bye to my love for this shop! read more

I had the Potbelly's catering. We had the macaroni and the potato salad. They tasted yummy - just like if I made it at home. Since it was catered, they came in little packages. We also had the pecan pie bars and the lemon bars. The lemon bar was tart but not too tart. I liked the lemon tart! I also got the a wreck sandwich. It had salami, roast beef, turkey, and ham with Swiss cheese. * Delicious! I think it tasted good. It tasted just like if I made it at home. I think their catering is fast and convenient. I like that the pickles came in a little plastic container. I am not a huge fan of the pickles sliced so thin. I like the large crunchy pickles. The flavor is also not my style either. I like Potbelly's and how it is fast and convenient. Their food is delicious! read more

This review is based on my first and only visit. I ordered the skinny pair, which consists of a skinny-sized sandwich and a cup of soup. I picked the turkey avocado multi-grain bread sandwich (under 400kcal) and the garden vegetable soup (70kcal). I paid about 9$ for the combo. Everything tasted delicious. I wish they served the soup for dine in, as well as the sandwich with reusable tableware. The sandwich had a good amount of turkey and avocado. You can always pick more of the basic toppings at no charge. I would also complement the soup that tasted great and wasn't sweet. I wish they had more low-calorie soup options. Also, I wish they offered a basic unsweetened iced black tea at a low price. If McD can do a large coke for 1$, I don't see why businesses don't offer simple unsweetened tea at this price. I am writing all this as suggestions. All in all, the healthy food tasted great and didn't make me sluggish. I wish it was a dollar cheaper, but OK. read more

Potbelly - Multi-grain bread turkey avocado sandwich and a garden soup in a so called "skinny pair combo" for around 9$, at under 500kcal combined. - Sandwiches Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I had the chicken breast, cheddar, bacon, lettuce and tomato on the flatbread. I thought that it was a bit dry. However, I liked that the chicken breast was all-natural and not the processed meat that I find in other deli sandwich shops. Maybe it could have used a little more mayo or some other sauce to make it more juicy. I thought that it was a bit lacking in flavor. Perhaps it is because this is a healthier sandwich than can be found in other places that have a lot of added flavors and preservatives. I did find that the lettuce and tomato seemed fresher than at other restaurants I have been to. When I went, there weren't that many people there at the time. This was likely because it was an off-day for the local school in the area. Otherwise, I would expect the place to be very busy. I liked that the restaurant was fairly quiet because usually when restaurants are crowded, it is harder to move around inside the restaurant. I thought that the restaurant looked clean and the employees were generally friendly. If they still have the chicken tomato mozzarella by the time I go back, I'd like to try that one out instead. read more

Don't order from here unless you want to spend $12 or more on two pieces of bread with no filling.

This place always delivers. Great sammies, lovely people. Pizza sub with the hot peppers is where it's at.

Last time when I went here I ordered grilled chicken sandwich, which I highly recommended because when I first came here I didn't know what to get and I saw chicken sandwich to go, and I took a first bite I decided to get it every time because it was so good, once again I highly recommend this place. read more

Really good food, the soups are delicious. Online ordering and pickup are really easy. Staff always friendly.

Seven years later and things have improved on the sandwich of my choice. The new BLTA was good, even though the bread was a bit overtoasted. The bacon they use does get quite crispy and the avocado was fresh and creamy. Pretty basic and safe as I doubt they ever upgraded the turkey quality. About 7 bucks for a 6 inch sandwich. read more

Craving a sandwich on this hot day and we knew when we saw this location we had to stop. Easy parking and large seating area inside. Social distancing and masks is happening here and our experience was good. We were helped right away and had our sandwiches within minutes.

This is my go-to for a celebration lunch at work. It is a pain to get out of the parking lot at the Univerity, so It has to be good food to get me to fight that. The Wreck is a great sandwich, but I am frequently drawn to the chicken choices. I usually have to order a small sandwich because I cannot resist the Pot Pie soup. The crust crumbles make the experience, and the delicious flavor takes me back to my grandmother's cooking. Their toasted bread with cheese and careful preparation elevate Potbelly above the other sub sammie spots. I have taken members of every team I have worked with to Potbelly and they loved it. read more

We love Potbelly!! One of the best sandwich shops in our book. My husband orders the wreck and I order the Italian. We like the multigrain bread. Mac and cheese is a good side, too. You have to get a shake. They are delicious and come with a shortbread cookie around the straw. We usually order chocolate, but any flavor is great. The brownie cookie is one of the best cookies I've ever had in my life! Haha Seriously love this place and so glad they are in AZ. We originally tried them in Chicago. We'd love it if they would open a location closer to our home in Ahwatukee, but we'll keep making the commute to Tempe ;-) read more

Fresh bread and great ingredients. Server carved avocado to make my sandwich. Every one in our party enjoyed the food and vibe of the place. Check them out. read more

My sandwich was pathetic to say the least. I didn't make any modifications to the order-- I wanted everything inside. I don't know where the vegetables went?? How did they allow this out the door? Pictured is the wreck, but we also ordered Italian. They looked exactly the same, and there's not much difference in taste either. I was still hungry afterwards. So angry. Definitely emailed them in response to their reply. Becuz I had the time to see what they'd say... they didn't reply back! read more

Potbelly - Sad little sandwich. The wreck. - Sandwiches Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

The score does not reflect the quality of the food, that's 5 stars! The rating is for the service when that place is completely empty and you happen to be the 3rd wheel at a time that 2 people are behind the counter that should be focused on taking care of you. Instead they are too busy chit chatting about something or other and going thru the motions of making your sandwich and ringing you up. The place is always spotless and welcoming. If you are like me, you go there not only for the food but for the rewards you earn, which is NOT what I got because the girl running the register was too distracted having a conversation with the girl behind the counter. I tried to go by route of sharing on the receipt and got a cookie but still have not heard back so I'm out the purchase I made that day! I just cleaned out my account. What's the use of being promised "rewards" if they ain't giving them to you in this economy. read more
