This Week At The Gaming Bunker

Verified from public schedule sources

What You'll Find

The Gaming Bunker operates out of a house location in Bastrop, TX, making it a unique home-based FLGS that still maintains a robust inventory including retro gaming pieces and a strong selection of Warhammer 40K models and paint
The store is known for sourcing hard-to-find Warhammer 40K models and paint that are often only available online, attracting customers willing to drive significant distances (such as from Georgetown, TX) for their selection
Staff members, including owners Jay and Zach, provide painting knowledge and instruction to customers, demonstrating expertise across multiple gaming skills from tabletop wargaming to miniature painting techniques

Tips From Regulars

First Time Here

The owners are exceptionally welcoming to new and younger players, going out of their way to help kids get started with gaming—bring newcomers without hesitation, as the chill, family-friendly atmosphere makes it an ideal entry point into the hobby

Best Time To Visit

This is a house-based FLGS with drop-in friendly table policy, so call ahead or check hours before visiting—one reviewer noted wishing they opened earlier for lunch hour trips, suggesting flexible but potentially limited hours

Pro Tip

Staff members Jay and Zach are highly knowledgeable about Warhammer 40K and painting techniques—ask them for modeling and paint advice when you visit, as they can provide hands-on guidance despite no dedicated paint stations being available

What To Expect

Despite being a house-based operation, The Gaming Bunker offers snacks, drinks, and a comfortable gaming space with retro gaming pieces available—plan to settle in for full gaming sessions with refreshments on hand

Money Saver

The Gaming Bunker stocks a strong selection of 40K models and paints that can be hard to find in regular stores, with competitive pricing—worth the trip from surrounding areas like Georgetown if you're hunting specific hard-to-find inventory
