Welcome to Grilled by The Staff Canteen, this is season 6 and our next four episodes will be hosted by Mark McCabe, Head Chef at Henrock by Simon Rogan and previous Chef Owner of The Ethicurean.
In this episode of Grilled, Mark talks to Josh and Holly Eggleton, the sibling duo behind six restaurants and a brewery.
Together with Holly, who manages the front of house, Josh took over The Pony and Trap in Chew Magna. Under their leadership, the pub earned a Michelin star while maintaining a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere where locals could enjoy anything from a pint of beer to a three-course meal.
In 2020, The Pony and Trap transitioned into a community interest company, reflecting Josh’s long-standing commitment to sustainability. Then, in June 2023, Josh and Holly relaunched The Pony and Trap as The Pony Chew Valley after a three-year revamp. The new venue is a multifaceted space featuring a produce-led restaurant, events venue, cookery school, and kitchen garden.
In this episode, Mark, Josh and Holly delve into the vital role of community in the restaurant industry. They discuss how they believe restaurants can be more than just places to eat, but hubs for giving back to society and fostering strong local connections; from sustainable practices to community engagement.
