I'm very disappointed today. Will never come again. Different staff today wearing angry faces, the lentil soup was horrible, watery and cold. The main meal : they counted a few oily burnt chips, and the fish and the mashed peas were disgusting! A good way of chasing away customers !

We went there with really high hopes, but as the first course came on the table, the hopes were shattered. Second course was even worse than the first one. The price of food is outrageous compared to the quality. I highly disapprove and recommend not to come here. Go to Genova instead.

My wife and I have been coming here for years, we were meeting with family who had never been before but we had hyped up how good Pendulum was and that we would take them there. This visit was such a departure from how good this restaurant has been in the past. We were left for hours without any attention from the staff, no one came up to ask us if we wanted anything else to drink, but they kept looking at our table. A couple of occasions I had to go get a member of staff to come and serve us. We would've easily spent a lot more money than we did as this was a dinner we had really looked forward to but this was such a bad impression on the people we recommended this to. We waited so long that we had to actually go up and ask for the bill then no one came back to our table to actually take the payment so we had to go up to the bar to pay. I'm hesitant to return.

Came highly recommended and definitely didn’t disappoint. Very tasty food, the Mac and Cheese up there with the best I’ve had Pleasant surroundings and excellent service One little criticism and I’ve noticed it in a few places recently, can’t leave a tip if you’re paying by card ….luckily we had money on us but we are moving to a cashless society

I visited with family mid week as they stay in Paisley and recommended this as their favourite establishment in the area. Food was lovely, and the waiting staff were super nice! There was a really nice atmosphere and it was quite busy for being mid week. Would definitely recommend and will return - the balmoral chicken is 10/10!!!!

Decent food but overpriced. The choice of beverages was good but the wines again far too expensive. The venue offers nice views of Paisley Abbey. If you’re stuck in Paisley it’s a place you could consider but don’t drive all the way there because you’ll be disappointed.

Very disappointing meal . Have visited Pendulum several times and always had lovely meal however dinner was very poor . Starter was dry and bland most likely frozen Yorkshire puddings with unseasoned brisket and watery gravy. Main of traditional steak pie was horrible with uncooked pastry cold lumpy mash and pathetic veg . Presentation was awful as was taste . Servers were lovely and did try to offer replacement meal but having sent back meal once didn’t want to try again. Would not recommend evening menu at all and can only presume different chef .

I visited Pendulum for the first time yesterday. My friend and I were rudely addressed by a young lady when we kindly asked for a table for two for lunch. We had a couple more interactions with this member of staff, and she once again was extremely rude. Despite this, I can say the food was really good (I had the salmon fillet), and the waitress who actually served us was lovely. She checked on us often and had a positive attitude. I have mixed feelings about coming back, and I think it is disappointing how one person working in a customer-facing role could be so unpleasant.

Nice place to spend a few hours with a close view of Paisley's intriguing and powerful Abbey (see picture from different elevation) Scottish themed menu, a chance to try some old classics like Cullen Skink and Beef Olives should you want to. Great service and lively atmosphere, an 80th birthday party and a Baby Shower in progress while we were there on a Saturday afternoon. Recommend booking. Wander around the Paisley Abbey before or after eating a hearty lunch.

Once again great service and very good breakfast food served how you request it . Love how juice and tea/coffee are included with the set menu deals . That should come as standard in my opinion. Have now been here on several occasions and not found any problems as per the negative reviews although it was a quiet day . Back again on Valentines Day so will update after a busy night

Not the best. 3 of our 4 mains were cold. The plates were hotter than the food. Sent back and came back microwaved. Chicken Balmoral was so tough it was hard to cut and 1 dish was still cold. Not the usual experience we’ve had previously. Waiter did try to rectify but you can’t send food back twice for another blast in a microwave. Shame as lovely setting and staff nice

Very disappointing traditional Christmas Dinner. Veg was obviously reheated several times. Potato skin was tough and dry, Brussels tiny and charred, turkey was tasteless and the gravy was far too thin to the point of running off the food. Whilst the stuffing was tasty it was cut from a role an possibly frozen. The young women serving were lovely. The guys were a bit dour. I've given 2 stars for food as the starters and dessert were nice.

First visit last night and the food was exceptional. The king prawn starter was the most delicious starter I have tasted. Prices were very reasonable and atmosphere was lovely. Also a big thank you to the staff/ manager who were so helpful and kind, to help look for my purse all over the premises and outside, which I had actually dropped beside our parked car but thankfully found. Will def return, I’m already looking forward to the delicious king prawns

Had a beautiful Christmas lunch with my sisters-in-law and a friend. The food was excellent and the service as usual was first class. Last year we all agreed that the Pendulum would be our go to place for our Christmas lunch and agreed this year that we will go again next year. That is not counting the times we will all visit throughout the year. We just so enjoy it.

First time visit at this restaurant. It was busy for a Monday lunchtime but the staff were courteous and friendly. I was I. A party of 7 and we were treated well. The baked mushrooms were a firm favourite for starters and I can personally vouch for the liver pate. The chutney went well with it and the toasted sourdough was the perfect accompaniment. Moving on to the main course the salmon was in demand and it was delicious. The chicken and haggis was also tasty. The wine was limited but we made the best of it and enjoyed both red and white. The espresso martini is worth ordering along with their sticky toffee pudding though consider sharing as it is plentiful. Lovely coffee to finish off. The staff were lovely and allowed to us to sit in after our meal making it a relaxed and enjoyable afternoon. I would definitely come back for more and great value. A three course lunch comes in at just £20.
