Potbelly is celebrating National Meatball Day in a big way this year with some delicious offerings from its Underground Menu.

From March 9 through April 3, 2023, fans can access Potbelly's famous Underground Menu exclusively online and through the brand’s app. The menu features three toasty meatball creations and Potbelly is inviting its Perks Rewards members to try all three during the promotional timeframe for an added reward. The sandwiches featured as part of the promotion include the Sicilian, which is an Italian sandwich with meatballs, mushrooms, marinara sauce, and provolone cheese, and the Wrecking Ball sandwich, which is the brand's signature Wreck sandwich plus meatballs, marinara sauce, and provolone cheese. The last sandwich on the menu is the Fireball, which consists of meatballs, chili, cheddar cheese, and Potbelly’s signature hot peppers.
