I was here for a friend's 30th birthday party over the weekend and although on face value I thought…read moreit would be cheap drinks and a great family experience. .. It was left wanting. The whole building needs a refurbishment.. The toilets look like a child's science experiment... It wasn't clean and the drinks selection at the bar was honestly shocking. The coke in the dispenser tasted metally and the drinks weren't cheap at all especially for a social club! The layout of the main room with the stage was great, bar at the back and small stage at the front. But there were open splinter rooms and a seating area outside not connected to the main room at all.. so the party got split up. The parking is fab loads of space.. but hugely unnecessary severe speed bumps on entering the car park. I don't know what the hire costs are but we shall not be rushing to hire the place despite it being a 5 minute walk from our house!

Deepdale, home to Preston North End FC is one of the oldest football stadiums in the world, opened…read morein 1878 it is often regarded as the longest continually used stadium in the world. - signs of its age can show such as the construction of the stadium being rather strange which includes a built-in walk-in/doctors surgery as well as an old-fashioned, strange enterance to executive areas which at times look like houses. The stadium also remains pretty difficult to navigate - it also didn't help that a steward sent me the wrong way meaning I had to pass thousands of Preston fans, before getting into the game where I'd watch my Manchester City defeat Preston 3-0 at an almost full capacity ground (the stadium holds just over 24,000) Away disabled supporters are located at pitchside in a ditch area, which is lower than the pitch making it rather difficult to see action at the other side of the pitch - I even struggled to see if the ball had or hadn't gone in for some attempts, supported by only one scoreboard/screen which was above the away end meaning no away fans could see the scoreboard or watch replays which I didn't like - once again this shows the age of the stadium. I also couldn't believe my eyes when the match was playing that staff members kept walking past slowly, blocking the view (mainly of disabled supporters) including a program seller who wouldn't leave until he sold one - I mean come on, we're here to watch the game so what are you doing mate? The one good thing about the pitchside location is the fact the players can come over to greet you after the game, which Benjamin Mendy did - a fantastic player and person. The match tickets were pretty reasonably priced but it was a Carabao Cup fixture which is generally cheap anyway as it is a competition often used for big teams to give their youth players and B-team a chance, The stadium is pretty easy to get to with bus stops nearby although after the match the traffic is horrendous, often resulting in a two-mile walk back to the city centre and train station - I do feel the bus companies are missing a trick by forcing anyone heading from the train station to the stadium to change buses (an extra ticket) because many away fans would be reliant on public transport and most stadiums I've been to do have a direct route from the nearby train station including Liverpool, my Manchester City and of course Wembley, the national stadium - even teams around Preston's level such as Stoke City and Wigan Athletic do, so it's not just a divisional thing. Certainly not the best stadium in the country, and it is one of the oldest - I'd say the overall match experience for away fans is made pretty poor due to the difficulty and lack of signage getting into the stadium and then facilities such as lacking a view of the screen etc. 2* - Historic ground but pretty dismal for away fans other than being able to get closer to your players than most other stadiums.

I'd rather see your south end than your north end, but let's get on with the review. See what I did…read morethere? I Preston with the review. I don't like that when you buy this team's kit, the numbers and name on the back are Preston instead of Sewnon. But it's ok. PNE stands for only one thing in my world. And that's' Post-Natal Ecstasy. Oh wait. Back to the football. First-Hand Experience: Absolutely adore PNE. Have seen them play at home, and also away against their hated rivals Blackpool. I don't know why they hate each other when they are both amazing teams. I support both of them fully. Well done to Preston for being promoted, absolutely delighted about that. I want to see them as a Prem team one day. I love going to Deepdale to watch them and will be going again in 2016. One of the biggest and best teams outside the Prem and an easy 5 star rating. Preston North End is one of the most historic and grand teams outside the Premier League. Based on size alone they should be back in it. They have a beautiful loud intense 25k seat stadium, but they just have been mismanaged for a long time. They have some glory days though. They were champions of England twice, in 1889 and 1890. They were runners up many times, including twice in the 1950s. They won the FA Cup twice, in 1889 and 1938 right before WWII. Wolves, Burnley and Preston are the only teams who have been champions of all four divisions at some time or another. They have also lost in the cup final 5 times. Definitely one of the classic teams of England, but all these reviews dedicated to the stadium should be moved to the new stadium listing which I created! :)

I'm making a complaint due to tonight. Myself and 2 other…read moremen entered the property and arrived at the bar. As soon as I made the bar man aware I was homosexuel, he started making inappropriate comments, one of the comments was along the lines of "you aren't my type" I immediately sat away from the bat as I started feeling like he was being difficult. The bar Man stated that I was "not his type" even though I hadn't mentioned anything like this, the security then appeared at my table telling me I had to leave, I had whiteness and there is also cctv to look into this, obviously I was upset as I feel I've been targeted. I asked for the bar staff name but was reserved, I then asked for the security name and was told "mike", I do not understand why I was removed I had caused no issue except telling the bar man he was not my type. The security approached me and then I told him I would leave immediately, when I asked him why he could not explain. There is no reason I can see that I was removed from.the bar, apart from the bar barmans own issues and any cctv or recordings from the night would prove it, I have no idea why I was kicked out and intend to complain on every level untill I have been addressed properly.

This is the only example of its kind that I've attended, so 4star rating for now. I went and…read moretreated myself on my birthday 23rd December 2017 to a private booth so four star rating for now. The dancers are polite and friendly yet pretty girls approaching ME (in underwear) rather than vice versa will take a while to get used to! :-D Though of course it's in their interests to. ;-) The piped music was a little intrusive and made the chit chat with dancers harder to make out. Thankfully it was peaceful in the enclosed box booths downstairs with a bead curtain, if a little dark to see where I was! The brunette dancer, C, named after an upmarket district in London treated me warmly, politely and smelled all girly lovely and snuggly - rather intoxicating to the senses :) It was £65. The door charge was £5. It may have been 30-mins to 45mins but the dance felt like an hour. I liked that she's a keen horsewoman like myself so we had something to talk about, that's if I managed to being so distracted by her gyrations :-) The staff were super and even were kind enough to accommodate my error in invoicing for dances - it is cash only. I wanted to upgrade for another, longer dance to £200. I think it's a private room with more plush furnishings and maybe they take more clothes off I don't know. However I had to reluctantly be on my way as I was getting slightly fatigued.
