I have been to Pendulum, twice. Not on a Thursday night though, but on weekends.
I enjoyed both visits very much. It is not the "fanciest" club, but it is a very comfortable, safe and laid back sort of atmosphere.
You've got a main area where a bunch of tables with chairs and benches are set up. There is the bar and dance floor with stripper pole, and then over near the back, there are a couple of more poles raised off the ground, for dancing, etc.
The bar is byob, so you bring your own booze and you can get mixers and waters for free. They let you just set up all your drinks, etc at your table.
The bathrooms (well, the ladies anyways, I never went into the mens) was very nice, clean, and fully stocked (lube, condoms, wipes, toiletries, etc.) I was actually impressed with how good it was.
The back rooms are the naughty rooms. You've got public and private options and a bevvy of fun things to play on (for example, a spanking/fucking bench, a sybian, and once they even had a St. Andrew's cross if you are feeling kinky.)
There are condoms, lube, wipes, sanitizer, etc throughout. Overall I was very impressed with how clean and organized it is.
You can play/fuck openly and though people might be watching you, no one has ever made me feel weird or insecure or creeped out there. People openly walk around nude in both the main areas and back rooms, and it is just like a laid back atmosphere of people who want to have fun.
As said, I've always had a good time and will definitely be returning again.
Good luck to you and hope you have some fun wherever you end up!!
