This place just opened right across from HP on East Harmony: Potbelly Sandwich Shop. This is a big chain with over 400 locations, with 10 now in CO. They are also planning another location in Old Town FoCo soon. This location is not a franchise, but directly owned by the parent (publicly traded) corporation.
This eatery got its start in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. Owners of an antique store decided to start serving sandwiches as a side business in 1977. The food soon outsold the old junk, but the antique stove still remains as their logo. Still a revered institution back in Chicago, I hear.
Up above we have a custom roast beef "biggie" with extra meat, cheese, hot peppers (a must), mayo, oil, and spices. Pretty good stuff, but not cheap with the extras. Kinda reminds me of Quiznos: everything gets toasted, served nice and hot.
Get here early for lunch: like most new places, the FoCo locals are coming out -- the line can be long.
