The Franklin Street real estate company represents the landlord.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it\u2019s great that this brand is expanding into Jacksonville and that they are opening in core markets like Beach\/Hodges. Potbelly is a well-established brand and I think that the community will enjoy having them at Hodges Station along with our other retail, restaurant, and service tenants,\u201d said Ricky Ostrofsky, Franklin Street managing director and market leader.<\/p>\n

Potbelly Sandwich Works is planned in Deerwood Village at 9908 Old Baymeadows Road, at southwest Baymeadows Road.<\/p>\n
The first Potbelly Sandwich Works in Jacksonville is being built-out in corner space in the Deerwood Village shopping center.<\/p>\n
For that project, the city issued a permit Aug. 5, 2025, for Brothers Group Construction Co. of Jacksonville to renovate a 1,536-square-foot space at a project cost of $457,923.<\/p>\n
That location is at 9908 Old Baymeadows Road, at southwest Baymeadows Road and Southside Boulevard. The Potbelly space was previously leased by Subway.<\/p>\n
As with the second proposed location, DXU Architects of Chicago is the architect for the project. Plans show 26 seats inside and four outdoors.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Deerwood Village anchor tenant Publix Super Markets Inc. recently opened its rebuilt supermarket there.<\/p>\n

Franchisee Patrick Prendergast of Gold & Green Management LLC of Ponte Vedra is the franchise owner for both locations. The LLC lists him and Leah Prendergast as the owners.<\/p>\n
A year ago, Potbelly Sandwich Works posted on LinkedIn that Prendergast was set to open seven shops across Duval and St. Johns counties.<\/p>\n
Prendergast posted that Gold & Green Management would open \u201cnot one, not two, but a staggering seven Potbelly locations\u201d in the two counties.<\/p>\n
He posted on LinkedIn eight months ago that Gold & Green Management had its first of seven locations locked in.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Stephanie McCullough, senior vice president and principal of SRS Real Estate Partners, is listed as the contact for the landlord. She said SRS also represents Potbelly in its site search.<\/p>\n
The at least 20 varieties of Potbelly sandwiches include prime rib steak; \u201cA Wreck\u201d of turkey breast, smoked ham, roast beef, salami and Swiss cheese; a veggie melt; chicken salad; and grilled cheese.<\/p>\n
Potbelly was founded in a Chicago antique shop in 1977. It now operates in 30 states and Washington, D.C. There are 16 in Florida.<\/p>\n
It became a public company in 2013.<\/p>\n
