The Jolly Farmer, Manston

Very disappointing. Having eaten there before when the food and service was good we had a nasty shock. The food was mediocre and the standard of a supermarket ready meal. Gravy was missing from one dish whilst the scampi was dry. When we asked for a second bottle of (expensive) wine the waitress went back to the bar and then chatted to her friends. After 10 mins we caught her attention and she admitted she had "forgotten". I then asked for the bill so we could retire to the garden. She went back to the bar and chatting to her friends. Finally we went outside only to be asked by another waitress if we really wanted 2 tables as they were busy!!! Poor on all fronts. Wouldn't risk a return trip.
