Potbelly built its business on toasted sandwiches served fast, and its pricing structure is unusually simple: nearly every sandwich comes in three sizes — Skinny, Original and Bigger — with the Original as the default. Choosing the right size is the main lever on what you pay.
The chain's best-known value plays are the Pick Your Pair combos, which let you build a half sandwich with a cup of soup, a salad or mac and cheese, and the free shake or cookie offers that arrive through the Perks loyalty programme.
