Ok, as the current Yelp "Duchess" of this joint (taking my bow as I speak) I would like to say that I LOVE this place! I am honestly a newer fan to Potbelly, but once I found the deliciousness of The Wreck and the cookies, I've been addicted. And like another Yelper posted... I like my Wreck drippin! I've been to three locations and this one is the closest to work and my favorite overall.
Pros: Staff here is always really friendly, they take your order from the line if it gets busy, first front line sandwich pro has made recommendations which I love. Now I get provolone! Management has given me a free cookie when they didn't have the one I requested, given me a large cup for my water without my asking (I prefer to eat my calories- not drink them), offered me a free drink while waiting on my to go order for my staff... All of which I appreciate and love from a place I am a regular. I like when a company gives management free reign to make decisions like this. Oh and the man that walks around to clear the tables couldn't be sweeter! I notice. My son loves that you carry IBC root beer and cream soda. I love that sides are reasonably priced and you're not forced to combo anything.
Cons, that WON'T keep me from coming back: One guy on the line repeatedly messes up my toppings order. He wants you to say them all quickly, but then each time he forgets one or two things. Repeatedly means the four times he has ever made my sandwich- each time. It's not a huge problem though, the really friendly girl on the end always gives me a side of what I'm missing when I go up there and ask. I HATE when an olive (I guess from the hot peppers) makes its way on to my otherwise perfect sandwich. I get rid of it immediately and try to erase the memory of it ever touching my sandwich in any way. A quick search for them normally corrects this problem, but don't ever change from whole olives to chopped ones as it may ruin my hot pepper experience for good. Lastly, I drop my card all the time into the bowl and never get called.
Overall, love it and will keep coming back for more. I've gotten my staff and hubby addicted to wrecks now too! Hint, hint!
