Tucked away in the verdant countryside near Bristol lies the culinary realm of Josh Eggleton, a chef whose journey from modest beginnings to critical acclaim is as flavoursome as the dishes he creates. Born in 1984 in the village of Chew Magna, Eggleton's penchant for cooking emerged at an early age, leading him to training stints with culinary giants such as Gordon Ramsay and Michel Roux Jr. However, it was his own dogged ambition that truly set him apart. In 2006, alongside his sister Holly, he took over The Pony & Trap, transforming the traditional village pub into a Michelin-starred destination. The ethos here is resolutely British, with an emphasis on local and sustainable produce, a reflection of Eggleton's deeply rooted connection to the land and rhythm of rural life. Eggleton's reputation transcends the kitchen, finding a wider audience through his appearances on British television. He has been a familiar face on the BBC's Great British Menu, where his poised yet passionate approach to cooking resonated with both judges and audiences alike. Not merely content to bask in prestige, Eggleton has also co-founded several Bristol establishments such as Salt & Malt and Root, each with a distinct culinary identity that echoes his commitment to innovation and sustainability. His ventures collectively paint a portrait of a chef grounded in community and craft, blending rustic charm with refined technique. Eggleton's work speaks not only to his skill but to his vision for a distinctly modern British cuisine.
