simple question. Does Potbelly make better sandwiches than any other sandwich-based restaraunt?

EDIT: Poll refined--sorry to those who have already voted (including myself) :(

pot belly's better than subway, but small family owned italian deli's are the best.

Potbelly is my favorite, but I worked there for a summer so I got turned off to their sammiches for a few years. BTW, where's the poll.

I don't see a poll, and if you think that Potbelly makes the best sandwiches, then you really need to try your local Italian deli for a comparison.

And you've demonstrated one of the dumbest phenomenons on ATOT - people thinking the world revolves around their tiny city, town, province, whatever.

No, I don't think Potbelly is the best sandwich joint out there. I think Ruckus Dellio is. Oh, you've never heard of it?

They just opened one up near my work, good sandwich and pretty cheap. I still prefer Jersey mikes

Wait until you try Firehouse subs...way better than Potbelly's or Jimmy Johns. (and I have eaten at both).

Katz's in NY provided me with the best sandwich I've ever had. So, no. I do not believe Potbelly is the best sandwich joint out there.

Potbellys is the best value sandwich out there from a large chain. I think cosi makes a fine/comparable sandwich, although more expensive.

Potbelly shakes are AWESOME!
