Pindar is a small town in the Mid West Region of Western Australia. It is located about 30 km east of Mullewa in the local government area of the City of Greater Geraldton.

In 1894, the Northern Railway from Geraldton to Mullewa was opened, and four year later was extended to Cue. A railway station was built at Pindar to service outlying farms, and the townsite of Pindar was gazetted on 22 February 1901.[2]

The surrounding areas produce wheat and other cereal crops. The town was a receival site for Cooperative Bulk Handling.[3]
