I adore the ambiance of Julep Farm - it's an unusually beautiful spot with its farm areas, exquisite dining room and bar, and charming gift shop. I have always found the service to be hit or miss. On this trip, we arrived earlier than the crowd, I believe there were 3-4 other tables seated when we ordered our drinks. It still took 15 minutes to get 2 drinks from the bar and the winter margarita was just pure tequila - it was not a good flavor. Usually, I find their seasonal cocktails to be tasty. We ordered an appetizer, salads, and entrees. They all arrived together after a long wait. It would have been nice to get the simple appetizer (olives and bread) quickly and before our salads and certainly before our main dishes. I feel there is a lack of training since they seem to go through employees quickly. I had though about throwing an upcoming party there, but I'm afraid I'd leave having overpaid for the quality of service. I've never seen the same waiters there twice. I really wish the managers/owner would get things more organized... this venue could be the star of North Georgia.
