About Stockman’s Café

The former café and toilets, which served exhibitors attending the Royal Three Counties Show by providing shelter, hot meals and a welcoming place to rest and socialise, have now been demolished. Construction of a new, larger and greatly improved café and toilet facility is underway, with completion due in March 2026.

The new café will continue to support our shows and will also play an important role in generating income through venue hire, with the space expected to host more than 25 events each year once complete.

Almost £300,000 has already been secured towards the project, but we are still fundraising to cover the full cost of the build. Your support will help us complete this much-needed facility and ensure it can be enjoyed by exhibitors, visitors and event organisers for many years to come.
