Attentive service, clean and tidy, pleasant atmosphere. This was my first visit, ordered a BLTA to go. Only noticed later that it was missing the tomato! Still tasted good, but missing the T in a BLTA is a significant lack of detail. Nevertheless, I will certainly visit again.

I just discovered this amazing sandwich place. The food is fresh and exciting. The staff is very friendly and patient with new customers. Good music, good vibe. Will come back with family.

Potbelly Sandwich Shop – Disappointing First Visit
I leave reviews because I rely on them when I’m in unfamiliar areas, and I enjoy supporting local spots I haven’t tried before. Potbelly was one of those places.
While staying at a nearby hotel, I decided to stop in for a Mediterranean sandwich with hummus—something I’d looked forward to trying. I was greeted politely by a female cashier and followed the signs to the ordering area. After a short wait, she called someone over to take my order. The young man who arrived seemed disengaged and didn’t greet me. When he asked a question I couldn’t understand, I had to ask him to repeat it—it was about the sandwich size. Since it was my first time there, I asked if he could show me. He held one up, I said that was fine, and asked if it could be cut in half. He told me to let the next person know, but no one ever followed through.
Back at the prep station near the register, the same female employee asked if I wanted all the standard ingredients—I said yes. She then asked about guacamole, which I declined, though she shared she enjoys it on that sandwich. I appreciated the small talk, but it was unclear who was actually making my sandwich—there didn’t seem to be a clear flow or responsibility.
When I got back to my hotel and opened the sandwich, I was disappointed. It was thin, under-filled, and not visually appealing. The portion looked like something fit for a smaller size, not what I had selected. Thankfully, I had grabbed some spicy mustard because the sandwich lacked flavor. Also, it wasn’t cut, as requested, so I had to tear it apart myself.
While it was edible, it didn’t come close to expectations. If I had been closer, I probably would’ve gone back to address it.
Tip: Check your sandwich before leaving. The ingredients were sparse, the service felt uncoordinated, and the overall experience just didn’t deliver. If the young man is still in training, someone needs to be guiding him more closely—customer service makes a big difference.

Slow service, long line and only two staff members. My sandwich was cold by the time I got it, I come here especially for the hot sandwiches. I won't be back.

Solid place with phenomenal staff. Fast and fresh, great choice to hit up in the area for a good sammich without the mess and fuss of a lot of other places.
P.S. The flatbread is actually great if you're cutting calories, just saying.

Sand had one piece of chicken, missing egg and wasn’t a full serving. Lettuce not too fresh looking. I buy this all the time in Scott’s addition this pot belly’s was sub par.

Have been their customer for more than 3 years . Must say they have the best sandwiches in Richmond. prices are reasonable and their customer service is great. I'll recommend using potbelly app(download it in play store or Google play , it's a free app)to order your dishes it's much faster and easier, also you get coins which you can use your coins to get FREE sandwiches and enjoy many other perks and discounts. :)
Best sandwich ever ! All the staffs here so friendly

I have eaten Potbelly a number of times. Their sandwiches are stacked and very tasty. I got the Veggie Melt this time and their Churro Shake. The sub was perfect-full of flavor! And they have a lot of veggie toppings. The shake was good, but not as creamy as I would have liked. Will definitely be back! Thanks guys!

The kids working at cox potbelly were very attentive to allergies and preparation. The manager was rude and obnoxious and not pleasant . Behavior not appreciated wrong order put but fault again and again was mine . Anyways paid for the wrong order and tipped the wonderful kids but she needs to learn some mannerisms to talk to customers
