Potbelly is actually Potbelly Sandwich Works, (We just call it Potbelly for short). Potbelly started out in 1977 as a mom-and-pop antique store in a Chicago neighborhood. In an effort to make some extra cash, the owners started selling yummy toasted sandwiches. The sandwiches were the big hit, so the owners just decided to turn their antique store into a sandwich shop. They kept all the antiques, added some items to the menu (hand-dipped shakes, homemade desserts and soups) and had a friend come in to play the acoustic guitar, and voila- a Chicago cult classic is born! Since 1996, we’ve grown to more than 210 wildly successful company-owned locations in DC, Virginia, Maryland, Philly, Chicago, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minneapolis, Indiana, Texas, and Ohio.
