The Pendulum has a bad reputation but thats all changed now with significant investment by an Indian family.This large estate pub now has a open plan interior with multiple flatscreens broadcasting live sport ,a long bar with no real ale and a dull keg selection with only Salt Alpacalypse offering any interest and a kitchen which bangs out indian food ordered at the bar and delivered to your table .You can just walk in without dining so it can be called a Bar & Grill.My goat curry was spicey and the food is a better option than the beer line up,so I would only use it again for the grub.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Pendulum

1980s local shopping centre pub of unusual pyramidal design. Retains a twin-bar layout, with a plain but busy public bar with a pool table and a quieter split-level lounge with space set aside for the advertised karaoke events. No real ale, unfortunately, so made do with the inevitable John Smith's (although this cost just £2.50).

A bizarre shaped pub with a bizarre name that is a part of a 70/80s estate and shopping complex - and one i have not been to for 15 years. You could be forgiven for thinking it is an American Gospel Church or something, with its white walls dwarfed by its pyramid roof. As for the name, i am glad they used Poe's Pendulum in stead of The Pit! The interior has a couple of rooms. The lounge is to the right. It isd quite narrow and on split levels as it curves around the bar. It is in white and coffee, with patterned carpet. There are a few prints on the walls and a TV, showing sport. The bar is to the left. It has two areas, one half has darts and pool, while the other has brown perimeter seating. Several TVs adorn the walls, with sport on. It is in white. The service was friendly and there were a few locals in either side. They do food, but i didn't eat, so can't comment on that. Beer; no real ale, just the usual keg drinks with Banks's MILD. I had a shandy. A pleasant enough experience, just nothing for the real ale fan.
