This place is humongous! Great for a large party. Spacious inside and a nice outside area with corn hole. The main door is at the back of the building so I recommend parking in the back. Games to play indoors like darts and axe throwing. We came here to eat, did not participate in any games. Several TVs to watch a game and they will change the channel if requested. If you plan on ordering alcohol, you need to show your id at the front before being seated then they give you a wrist band. The beer wall is self serve with numerous choices. You have to provide a credit card then you swipe a beer card for every pour which charges you by the ounce. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. Numerous people will check on you. The food was decent. Sandwiches are big and messy. Highly recommend the sweet potato fries which are crinkle cut. I ordered a French 75 cocktail, a simple classic - it was NOT good. It lacked bubbles and was missing the classic lemon twist. They need training from an experienced mixologist. Bathroom was big and nice but very dark in the stalls. read more

Say it isn't so, I heard they're closing their doors and the escape room is moving to kileen? Harker Heights doesn't seem to have enough foot traffic for this place to accommodate their overhead costs. I split a burger and fries with the hubby for a ceremony after work, and honestly the food was ok. The employees were not bad. I didn't even get to play any games so im a little bummed. I hope they can find a new venue. But HH definitely needs more fun outing places like this read more

Your write-up is already great! Here's a refined version with slightly improved flow and word variety, while keeping your tone and enthusiasm intact: --- This restaurant is such a fun spot! Inside, there are games that adults can enjoy, making it a perfect choice for date night. If the weather's nice, the outdoor area offers cornhole and plenty of comfortable seating--great for relaxing and soaking in the atmosphere. I had a blast sampling the beers on the wall, but the highlight of this visit was definitely the blueberry mulled wine--absolutely delicious. We've been here twice now, and both times the burgers hit the mark. Be sure to say yes to the bacon jam--it seriously takes the flavor up a notch. It's a definite win for us, and I can't wait to come back for more! read more

Really fun place to hang out and grab great food and drinks! The ambiance is amazing, it's so nice to have a large classy NEW space in the Killeen/Harker Heights area. You walk in and think you're in Austin or another larger city. There's many options to relax and have fun from axe throwing, darts, board games, to Escapology escape rooms! Large group gatherings are great here, indoor or out with plenty of comfortable outdoor patio seating covered and corn hole. There are regular events held for even more to do. I do have to say every time we have visited the service has been TOP NOTCH! It's refreshing to have knowledgeable, professional, funny, personable and even entertaining (yes one guy does a few card tricks) servers. Highly recommend for large group celebrations, dates, girls night out or their brunch too. read more

*HIDDEN ESTABLISHMENt* This is what the area needs. I hangout spot where you can take your date or just take out the fellas/women for their own fun. Staff is friendly and showed me and showed us around. Clean facilities! Good food! Over time, this place will gain traction! read more

The food was okay, the serves were really nice and worked hard to provide exceptional service. The facility looks great I loved theme and decor around the place. Playing bingo was a great experience and might I add really easy to join through your Mobile phone so you can skip the awkward ask for bingo sheets etc. read more

Overpriced, Clueless, and a Total Hassle. This place has only been open a year and five months, and I'm honestly shocked it's lasted that long. They charge $10 for 30 minutes of darts. In Chicago, I paid $25 for 90 minutes at a much nicer bar. This is Harker Heights, not downtown Chicago. Within five minutes, we were swarmed by servers nonstop. When we asked about axe-throwing age limits, the staff had no clue -- one lady literally asked what shoes we were wearing instead of answering. You pour your own beer, but have to refill a card every 30 ounces, and most beers were already kicked. To top it off, they don't even have Prime, so you can't watch the only NFL game on TV. Ridiculous prices, clueless staff, and zero value. This place won't last -- and it shouldn't read more

The food and service was great we were there with a large group for an escape room later in the day. Drinks were good, we can say this made the escape room more fun. There is other games happening around you so the noise level is high. The beer drinkers liked that they received a beer card and could help themselves. We will be visiting here again for dinner and drinks. read more

I showed up at 4pm on Friday, when they open. The whole crew was sweet. They were a bit over attentive, but I'm sure it's because the place is new. When you walk in you get a id bracelet. I didn't expect that, but I like that they take safety seriously. You also pay for your beer card there. And let me tell ya, I love the variety! They switch beers often for new choices. I had a burger and "social" chips, no complaints. I liked the setup too. Lots of bar space, couches to sit on or table tops. The 90s - 2000 songs playing was a nice touch too. I have a work function planned here coming up and I'm actually looking forward to it! read more

We had a great time sampling the beer wall and playing music bingo. Every server that we encountered was fantastic! Can't wait to go back and try some games! Downside, we were there before 8pm and there were tons of beer that were tapped out. read more

One stop place for fun here in Harker Heights! I got invited to a farewell party and I was amazed with the place. From the outside it didn't look that big but as I entered the place it was a good size to host any party. Their yummy food, 30 beer tap, lots of different games (axe throwing, darts, outdoor games, & escapology) will sure to get you off your phone and enjoy your company. They are close Monday & Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday 4-11 pm, Friday 4-2am, and Saturday 11 -2am, and Sunday 11-11pm and every night 18+ after 8pm. The entrance is in the back parking lot, don't get caught up with those cones as they are still working on the road. I had so much interacting with my colleagues and I didn't have to talk loud to be heard. The staff are amazing and very knowledgeable. Always making sure everyone are doing good with drinks and food. Each table have a QR code to order and have the option to keep your tab open. It was a great evening and will definitely return with my family. read more

Had a great the food was great and the service was even better our server Noah was fantastic. He also did an amazing magic trick for us which we weren't expecting loved it. The environment was what we needed on a wonderful Friday night couples night with my wife. read more

Come for the games, stay for the food! Awesome beer wall! read more

Great place for the short time I was there. Clean, nice atmosphere, large selection of drinks, friendly staff, food looked and smelled good, lots of activities for a group or couple to enjoy. Not giving a 5 star solely cause I didn't have much time to really try everything. read more

From the moment we walked in the staff was beyond friendly. We met Kaitlyn, one of the owners, and Benji. They were so kind and helpful and willing to go above and beyond. We came to celebrate our anniversary and everyone that interacted with us wished us a happy anniversary! We didn't eat because we came for an escape room and had eaten prior to arrival, but, all the food coming out of the kitchen looked amazing. Especially the mac and cheese!!!! The beer tap wall is such a fun and unique idea. The three beers I had were excellent and hubby loved his old fashioned. They have lot of games you can "rent" for the night and that is so fun! Outdoor patio games are free and also looked fun. We thoroughly enjoyed the murder at the mansion escape room! We will for sure be back for more fun and will bring our kids (before 9pm) next time. For all you haters saying there's nothing to do in Killeen/Heights, get your butt here and check it out. There's stuff to do, you're just looking in the wrong places. Thank you, Gambit Social House for a superbly fun evening!!! read more

Third visit here and I can say it is my favorite place in the area. We were served by Renee at the bar today and she was amazing! Gave us great recommendations on the menu and even created a custom handcrafted drink that my husband absolutely enjoyed! The happy hour is just the right amount of chill for a quick afternoon escape! read more

Admin, take note: The place is nice, has a good atmosphere, looks clean, the reason im giving it 3 stars is because the prices are ridiculously high. This is exactly how establishments go out of business, people go one time and realize how expensive it is and never come back and go elsewhere. Cocktails and food are forbiddingly expensive, $17 for a burger? $16 for a cocktail? $27 to throw an axe? This is not downtown Austin, this is Harker Heights. Admin really needs to do something about before the loss of patrons start reflecting on your books. read more

Fantastic experience! Drinks, food and atmosphere were amazing. I highly reccomend the smash burgers. Check this place out for a date night or a night out with some friends. read more

Very fun! Very loud, so, hard to have conversation with your party. Beer wall is excellent although we were here early on a Saturday and they were out of a bunch of beers. Service was excellent! Especially Ashley at the front desk and Eric and really everyone is on top of it and if they don't know an answer, they will find out for you. Sopapillas were good especially the caramel sauce. Bingo was a hoot. Will definitely be back! read more

We went there for jeep night . They wanted our jeep keys at the door. I have never heard of giving a unestablished my keys. Why not ask all your customers for their keys? Then They asked us the number where we park . we told them what number and they couldn't find it . I could just imagine them looking for my keys when I'm ready to leave .. LOl .. Stupidest thing I've ever heard.Most places ask's for your credit card.. that's OK. We went somewhere else and spent our money. first and last time we'll be there. read more

Did an escape room, axe throwing, and had some food. All around great experience! I do wish there were a couple more food options as it's mainly burgers and wings with few options each, and I wish a drink menu was available at the table. But the escape room was a lot of fun and axe throwing was fun too. Great date spot or family outing :) read more

Went to soft opening and boy oh boy.. this place is going to be a must do in the Killeen/HH/Cove area! Fantastic local business with owners that have roots in the community. Space is modern and fun, with plenty to see and do! Now the important stuff... The food was absolutely out of this world. Steak fries were the best fries I have had hands down with a bunch of great sauces. The cocktails are fantastic and quite frankly we will be making the drive from round rock to visit more than we should!! Can't say it enough.. Go to Gambit!! read more
