Holly and Josh Eggleton opened The Pony & Trap on 22nd March 2006 aged 19 and 22, respectively, with the help of their parents Chris and Gail. The Pony & Trap grew and evolved under the direction of the siblings, going from local pub serving lasagne and chips to eventually become a nationally-acclaimed destination gastropub serving tasting menus — alongside pub classics too! The country-inn won numerous industry awards along the way, including holding 1 Michelin star for a staggering ten years, and being ranked 2nd in the Estrella Gastropub awards. Starting out on day one with only Josh, Holly, Chris, Gail and Scott of the Eggleton family coming together to open The Pony & Trap back in 2006, the restaurant group has expanded and the team has grown to comprise upwards of 200 staff.
