This year, Potbelly Sandwich Shop is celebrating 40 years of bringing a Fresh, Fast & Friendly dining experience to neighborhoods across the country.

The company recently introduced the Turkey Club to shop menus nationwide. Made with all-natural, hand-pulled and slow-roasted turkey, the limited-time Turkey Club features Nueske’s bacon and melted cheddar cheese on toasty warm bread with the customer’s choice of toppings.

Potbelly Perks Week runs Monday, July 31, through Friday, August 4. Perks are exclusive to customers who are members of the Potbelly Perks loyalty program.
