I don’t go and get sandwiches as much as I used to also plays a factor too.
A bit late here but wanted to share my take on Potbelly: by far #1 reason to go is to get a sandwich with giardiniera on it. It competes with almost any in Chicago, in fact I think some local magazine did a blind taste test and their giardiniera was near the top of the pack. I think it adds a lot of value to every Potbelly sandwich.
If hot peppers in olive oil isn't your thing, though, then I for sure agree at least a couple names on your list are better, and you can skip Potbelly.
