About Us
Rushton’s Catering has been in business since 1998. We are located at 2903 Powerhouse Dr. in Regina. In addition to our catering business we also provide lunch cart services to the Saskatchewan Science Centre.
As a caterer we have had the opportunity to serve a wide variety of customers over the years we have been in business. We have been fortunate enough to have had opportunities to serve the Premiers and Territorial Leaders at the Council of the Federation hosted Premier Wall as well as the Lieutenant Governors of the Provinces and the Governor General. We have also catered Dr. Linda Haverstock as Lt. Governor as well as current Lt. Governor Gordon Barnhardt. The Provincial Cabinets of the last three governments have also given us the opportunity to serve them. We are regular caterers at many events at Government House including the Annual News Day Levee and Garden Party in the summer. Government House has also begun providing seasonal food service to their tourist visitors for which we provide the food and beverages.
We are currently the opening night sponsor for the catering at the Globe Theatre. In addition to sponsoring the opening nights we have also been contracted to cater the closing nights for all the main stage performances. We have catered to many preshow clients receptions as well.
Our current regular corporate clients also include The Wingate Hotel, Holiday Inn Express South, FCC, CGI, the Royal Bank and many others. Last August we also were given the opportunity to provide the lunches for the athletes at the Canadian Kayak and Canoeing Championships.
We have also been the food service provider for Sherwood Forest Golf and Country Club and the Highland Curling Club.
