Has went downhill in the last year, food is a bit bland and boring, used to be better.

Visited Hogmany 2024 during a period of very stormy, wet and cold weather. Inside was the complete opposite, warm, welcoming and friendly! Breakfast on this occasion served by some very happy staff who were accommodating of our many requests and also informative. Food was of a high quality and everything was prepared to perfection - a cooked breakfast doesn’t mean a greasy breakfast- all washed down with plenty of tea and coffee. Hope to get back on this visit to sample the day menu and some of the amazing selection behind the bar! Great addition to Paisley!!

Visitado para una comida de Navidad con un amigo. Normalmente decepcionado con el menú festivo en los restaurantes en esta época del año, sin embargo, me quedé muy impresionado con el estándar de la comida. El tamaño de la porción era excelente y toda la comida que seleccioné tenía un sabor increíble. El personal era amable y el servicio también era excelente. El menú de la cena de 3 platos tenía un precio de £ 29. 95 por cabeza y era una buena relación calidad-precio.

Been going here for brekky every week now for a few months but food always been good. But this time we were literally first in waited 30 mins on food being served. My breakfast was stone cold but food was good and well presented. Partners scrambled egg was all that undercooked watery slobbery way underneath where you could see the clear part of the egg. Come on pendulum surely it’s not hard to get an egg wrong. Undercooked eggs can be dangerous. As I said above food usually great. This puts you off returning to places when they don’t check what they’re sending out but to be fair the egg looked ok on top till she starting digging in. We complained and the waitress said we’ll not charge you for the coffee. It wasn’t the coffee that was undercooked lol.

El lugar es precioso, el personal es muy agradable y muy servicial. Me temo que la comida es horrible. Tomamos un cóctel de gambas que me hubiera dado vergüenza servir en casa, diminutos langostinos acuosos insípidos en un horrible aderezo en vinagre y una lechuga de hojas suaves . . una combinación horrible. Mi compañero tenía el soplón de pollo, seco y no agradable, yo tenía una hamburguesa que habría hecho un excelente tope de puerta y era sin sabor. Ni siquiera las fichas eran particularmente buenas. Los vinos de la casa son horribles también. Una pena porque esta es una gran ubicación, el lugar es agradable, pero en serio mi abuela podría cocinar mejor comida.

Booked this place back in September for a 70th birthday celebration and Christmas dinner. What a shock we got when we were told on the day and only when I phoned to ask a question we had no booking and that they were full with a huge wedding party. Not even an apology, we got “well too bad we don’t have it in the book”. Disgraceful way to treat customers. Would not recommend, arrogant staff.

Booked a table 29th Sept for 7th Dec for a special birthday and on the day we phoned to say we were bringing a birthday cake and balloons only to be told they didn't have our booking and had a wedding party in so couldn't give us a table so we were left to try and find somewhere else at last minute.i phoned the day after to try and establish what had gone wrong only to b spoken to by a very rude person who stated she was the assistant manager and told me that no way had I booked the table because her staff would not have made a mistake. Then told me she had cancelled 14 people that day and our name wasn't one of them. !! I certainly won't book this place ever again

Ordered the prawn starter (bland sauce and bouncy over cooked prawns) and lamb main course and it was completely inedible, overcooked and dry. Waitress was sympathetic and offered £4 off my bill!!!! Was in a rush so paid and left Contacted manager Stef the next day, he agreed a full refund for the main course should of been offered (so £20) and promised to do asap. 3 weeks and 5 emails later I still don't have my refund even though he has promised to do it every time. Avoid

Almorzamos dos platos por 16 libras. 95 . Mi mamá optó por un plato principal y un postre, y yo opté por un entrante y un plato principal. Mi entrante fueron los buñuelos de haggis en masa de cerveza con un dip de mayonesa de mostaza integral. Los buñuelos estaban crujientes, con una masa dorada profunda, y muy sabrosos. Felizmente podría haber tenido como plato principal con patatas fritas. Mi plato fuerte fue Mac 'n' Cheese con patatas fritas, de nuevo muy sabrosas y una porción de buen tamaño. Mi mamá tenía la ensalada Pendulum, que consistía en pollo a la parrilla, pudín negro Stornoway, tocino y crutones. Era una porción pantanosa, y ella realmente lo disfrutó. El postre de mi madre era el helado de Caledonia. Se trataba de helado de vainilla con tableta casera y salsa de caramelo picante. Dijo que era excelente. Sin duda volveríamos a comer aquí de nuevo si visitamos Paisley.

I thoroughly enjoyed the 2-course lunch for £16.95 today. Great value for the options (I had homemade soup and fish & chips), portion sizes and bright, spacious setting. All of the staff were very friendly and attentive. It was almost full on a Monday lunch but they squeezed me in. Lovely atmosphere in a beautiful setting opposite the historic Paisley Abbey. I’ll be booking in next time and looking forward to another visit hopefully leaving room for a dessert. Many thanks.

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.

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.
