Oak Creek Potbelly Launches New Sandwiches

OAK CREEK, WI — The Oak Creek Potbelly will have a few new sandwiches on its menu. The Chicago-based franchise announced details about it on Wednesday.

The menu changes include a few totally new sandwiches and a few enhanced versions of existing sandwiches. Here's what sandwich-lovers can expect from their next visit to the Oak Creek Potbelly at 160 Town Square Way.

The new sandwiches:

• Avo Turkey (hand-sliced turkey breast, swiss cheese, fresh-sliced avocado and cucumber)
• Steakhouse Beef (Angus roast beef, crumbled blue cheese, provolone cheese and horseradish aioli)

• Chicken Club (all-natural grilled chicken, applewood smoked bacon and cheddar cheese)

As for enhancements across the menu: there's a longer original-sized sandwich, and an increased meat and cheese-to-bread ratio on other sandwiches, the company said.

During September, members of the Potbelly reward program will be able to receive bonuses in celebration of the new menu, the company said in a news release. Potbelly Perks members will get a free original sub after they get a "big" sub from a local shop.

Potbelly said that it also has added its catering menu to the app.

"We're building on the exceptional experience customers expect when they come to Potbelly," Bob Wright, president and chief executive officer of Potbelly said. "Whether it's the signature warm and toasty Wreck®, a favorite of dedicated Potbelly fans for years, the freshly baked oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, or one of our new savory sandwiches, we are giving our fans more good reasons to come back time and time again with our new sizes and offerings!"
