All Subways are independently owned and a reason for the closure has not been provided at this stage.

A spokesperson for the store said: “We would like to remind customers that we may run out of items today as stock has been depleted.

“We would also like to thank all of you for your custom over the years, many thanks from all of the staff and the owners at Subway.”

The nearest Subways can be found in Poulton Street, Kirkham and the EG fuel station at the former site of the Saddle Inn in Sidgreaves Lane, Lea, Preston.

Subway was approached for comment.
