First time to Deepdale for me, and looking for a decent pint or two pre match.

Any suggestions?

"PUBS FOR AWAY FANS
There is not a great deal in the way of pubs in close proximity to the ground. However there are a couple of nearby social clubs that welcome away fans. First there is St Gregory's Catholic Club, which is around a five minute walk away on Blackpool Road. The Club allows entry for a charge of £1, but offers reasonably priced drinks, hot pies, plus has Sky television. You can also park at the Club at a cost of £3. Secondly, there is the Moor Park Sports and Social Club, situated around ten minutes walk away from Deepdale, at the junction of Blackpool Road and Garstang Road across from Moor Park (PR1 6AD). Parking is available at the Club at a cost of £3 per car and non-members are admitted free into the club on matchdays. There is also the Emmanuel Social Club on Emmanuel Street, which welcomes away fans and can accommodate coaches. (see advert below)

Around a 15 minute walk away on Watling Street Road is the White Hart pub, which allows in away fans. It also has the added advantage of showing televised sports. If going away from the ground past Sainsburys and where Sumners was, then you bear right onto the Watling Street and the White Hart pub is along on the left.

Paul Billington adds; 'In all honesty visiting fans should avoid town centre pubs simply because the Police will move you on quickly if they see you and most pubs will refuse to serve away fans. If you arrive by train I would recommend the Vic and Station, not for the decor but simply convenience.' Otherwise alcohol is served within the ground. Albeit there is no draught beer only bottles or cans; Fosters Lager (£3.80 Bottle), John Smith's Bitter (£3.60 Can), Bulmers Cider (£3.80 Bottle) Wine (£4 Miniature Bottle).

Whilst John a visiting Chelsea fan informs me; 'We went to Preston and had a great day. The Yates pub located about a 15 minute walk from the station towards the ground was fine and was okay for us away fans and family friendly. My only criticism of the ground was that it was difficult inside to get a drink as there was no proper queuing system and hence it was a mad scrum at the bar.'

Emmanuel Social Club
Emmanuel Street Social Club AdvertLocated a five minute drive away from Deepdale is the Emmanuel Social Club. This social club welcomes away supporters on matchdays and shows both Sky and BT Sports on a number of large screens. The Club is family friendly and costs nothing to enter. Open from 10am on Saturdays and 4pm for midweek matches, it has free parking nearby for both cars and coaches. Hot Food such as cooked breakfasts or curry and naan bread lunches can also be provided at reasonable prices when booked in advance. Please contact the owner John Singh on 0780 4657415 for further information and for coaches to pre-book parking. Deepdale is then around a 20 minute walk away from the club.

The White Hart is a good pub, it is slightly north of Deepdale, beyond the Sainsbury's and around the bend in the road but in the wrong direction for those coming by train.  The Black Horse Inn in the city centre has a good selection of ales.  For food, on the way to ground from the train station, the Yates is probably best but not great.
