Preston Premier Inn Craven Drive Amenities

Thanks to all who replied to my previous post enquiring about accommodation close to the M6 southbound. Think the Premier Inn South might just fit the bill but would be grateful if anyone could tell me what facilities there are for eating out in the vicinity. We will probably arrive around 9pm and will leave again early the next morning. From the website I see they have a Vintage Inn next door, but are there any other eating places close by? Any other chains where I might be able to use vouchers, or get a breakfast deal. Thanks

    There is a Sainsburys superstore just across the road with a cafe that does tasty breakfasts.

    I haven't eaten at the place next door but I have at the pub opposite. The Poachers. The usual pub grub but it's cheap and cheerful. There is also a Sainsbury's across the road where you could have breakfast.

    Premier Inns are usually sited next to, or contain a bar/restaurant. Usually quite generic, but as long as you stick to food that can be competently prepared by just about anyone, you're golden :-)

    Thanks all for the info, but just as I went to book it, it went up in price so now looking at the other Premier in same area but at Cuerden Way. Anyone stayed here and can you tell me if the eating facilities are the same or similar to Craven Drvie? Thanks

    They are across the road from each other, believe it or not. Have a look on google maps, it might show you better. I live about a five minute drive from them.

    Hello neighbour:wave:


    mairi, two children under 16 can eat free at Premier Inn if ONE adult orders a full breakfast. Give them a ring (or email) to confirm if in doubt, the offer is from an email I received from Premier Inn last week.
