The FLACKYARD
Local, seasonal, native food and beverages.
Showcasing all things authentically local and honouring
awe-inspiring Australian bush foods.
OUR STORY
Our little growing Family have recently taken over the iconic old ‘Church Café’ in the Pioneer Valley and transformed it into The FLACKYARD.
We have travelled Australia, and the world, compiling ideas and inspiration – as far as the Middle East and the remote Kimberley wilderness.
Now back to his grass roots, it’s time to show this region what unique culinary flair Nik has to offer, all captured in a very special dining experience.
Nik’s Chef pedigree is incredible – a 20 year career in outstanding restaurants including: Wildflower (Perth); True North (International); Vue De Monde (Melbourne); and Fervor (WA).

We offer Entrées, Mains, Desserts and 5 & 10 course degustation experiences you have never seen or tasted before.

Can not recommend Nik highly enough. I surprised my fiancé with a celebratory dinner and it was absolutely amazing.
Nik brings the most incredible blend of fine dining with a dose of native produce and local knowledge to our lucky little town!! Loved it so much we have booked him for our wedding!
What a find by a chance drive by! Awesome food & flavours..this chef puts his whole heart into the experience.
A great spot for a special day or a romantic dinner.

The best experience I’ve ever had. Nik prepared 5 incredible courses and presented each dish beautifully.
The menu was mesmerizing and every element was executed with perfection.
I highly recommend Flackyard Dining and can’t wait to use this service again!!!
