A national chain with nearly 50 years of history — known for its oven-toasted sandwiches and hand-dipped shakes — has opened its second Sarasota restaurant. Potbelly Sandwich Works opened Nov. 13 at 6650 Fruitville Road, Unit 146, in the Fruitville Farms shopping center near the intersection of Fruitville Road and Lakewood Ranch Boulevard. The Publix-anchored development is just east of Interstate 75. The new restaurant follows Potbelly's Sarasota debut last year , when the Chicago-founded chain opened at 1635 S. Tamiami Trail, across from Sarasota Memorial Hospital. “Potbelly is the familiar stop for a quick lunch, an easy family dinner or a shake at the end of a busy day when you need a sweet treat," Carol Manick, district manager at Potbelly, said in a statement. "We’re thrilled to build on our local presence and connect with even more fans here in Sarasota.” Potbelly plans to celebrate its newest location with a grand opening Dec. 4. The first 50 guests in line will receive free Potbelly for a year, according to the company. The event will also feature a ribbon-cutting and a game offering chances to win food, merchandise and other prizes. What is on the menu at the new
