Celebrating a Decade of Excellence: PickNic's Catering, a Trusted Saskatoon Caterer

PickNic's Catering & Fine Foods has been a trusted name in Saskatoon for culinary excellence for over 20 years. As we celebrate them reaching their 10-year milestone with Trusted Saskatoon, we take a journey through their inspiring story of passion, dedication, and community involvement.

PickNic's Catering traces its roots back to April 2003, when it started operating as PickNic's Bakery and Bistro. It wasn't long before their delectable offerings gained a dedicated following. In 2004, they moved to 22nd Street East and rebranded themselves as PickNic's Restaurant and Fine Pastries, where they continued to delight patrons with their sumptuous pastries and exquisite dishes for the next five years.

In 2009, PickNic's embarked on a new chapter as they moved to 33rd Street West. With this transition, they redirected their focus towards event catering and crafting wedding cakes that would leave a lasting impression. This change in direction marked the beginning of a new era for the establishment, one that would see them become a cherished fixture in Saskatoon's catering landscape.

Nicola Lawson 

At the heart of PickNic's Catering is the passionate and talented owner Nicola Lawson. Nicola's journey to Saskatoon was marked by many globetrotting adventures, working at various establishments worldwide within the food industry. Her travels eventually brought her to Saskatoon, where she decided to put down roots and share her culinary expertise with the local community.

Nicola is not just a culinary expert; she's also deeply involved in the community professionally and personally. Her engagement with numerous organizations and smaller community groups reflects her commitment to making a positive impact. As a mother of two girls, Nicola is equally passionate about shaping a bright future for them, emphasizing exposure to travel, language, diverse extracurricular activities, and multicultural events.

Krista Fehr

More recently, the dynamic Krista Fehr joined the PickNic's team. With over 25 years of experience in the foodservice industry and a Red Seal journeyperson cook, Krista brought some fresh energy to this culinary catering dream team alongside Nicola. Together, they've brought creativity and innovation to the business, enhancing its reputation for excellence.

What PickNic's Clients Say...

" It was absolutely fantastic to work with PickNic's. They've got an excellent system in place on the website, and even went above and beyond by taking the time to consult with me one on one. In the end the selections suggested were perfect for our gathering and the quality of food was superb. I highly recommend PickNic's... they're masters of food and customer service." - Warren Todosichuk
" PickNic'scatered our wedding, and OH MY GOD, IT WAS SOOO GOOD. Every single one of our guests raved about how good it was! Some even said it was better than their own wedding/weddings they had attended recently! Nicola and Krista and the gang made it super easy for us! From the dish rental to the bartending to the meal to the cake to the donuts, everything was absolutely perfect! And they made it so easy for our guests with allergies, intolerances, or dietary restrictions to navigate the buffet! The service was amazing from beginning to end. Worth every single penny! My only regret is that I didn't eat more (adrenaline and excitement made for a not super hungry tummy) or get any pictures of our meal, but that is, entirely, my own mistake. Thank you again! It was the happiest day and it was in part because of you and your team!" ❤️Krystina Micucci

Nicola & Krista Share What It Means To Be a Trusted Saskatoon Partner

"We are so proud to be an integral part of an amazing group of business owners that are as dedicated to quality, honesty and positive client experiences as PickNic’s Catering. "


A word from Sara, the Trusted Saskatoon founder, about her personal experience with PickNic's 

"To be in business for 20 years with the ups and downs of the economy is hard enough, to have to then deal with Covid, which hit the hospitality and food industry particularly hard… and to have survived intact is a testament to Nicola, Krista and the PickNic’s team. A huge part of why they have been so successful comes from their passion, quality, service and commitment to striving to be the best caterer in Saskatoon. PickNic’s has catered many of my special events - personally and for Trusted over the last ten years. From smaller client and team meetings to significant milestone events, including my 40th birthday, where she knocked it out of the park with a British-themed menu that was the talk of the party! I have never been disappointed with the choices, food quality or fantastic personal service.” - Sara Wheelwright

PickNic's Catering is more than just a business; it's a respected household name in Saskatoon. Over the years, their commitment to quality, creativity, and community engagement has made them an integral part of the city's fabric. 

In celebrating PickNic's Catering's 10-year milestone, we acknowledge their remarkable culinary achievements and their positive impact on Saskatoon and the communities they've touched. Here's to a decade of excellence and the expectation of much more to come as PickNic’s continues to lead the catering industry in Saskatoon and area.
