📍 Haarlemmerstraat 44, Amsterdam, Netherlands
De Dampkring – Centraal is one of Amsterdam’s most celebrated coffee shops, founded in 1997 and catapulted to global fame after featuring in the Hollywood film Ocean’s Twelve. Located on the Haarlemmerstraat, it attracts film fans, quality-seekers and connoisseurs who come specifically for its award-winning cannabis and its utterly unique atmosphere.
The interior is an extraordinary treasure trove of vintage lamps, hanging curiosities, antique furniture and warm amber lighting — more art installation than retail space. Every corner reveals something unexpected. Locals and knowledgeable tourists fill the intimate space, and the relaxed buzz feels a world away from the tourist-heavy shops near Leidseplein.
The menu consistently ranks among the best in the city, with multiple Cannabis Cup victories to its name. Expect premium Sativas, Indicas and exceptional hash selections, priced from around €11 to €20 per gram. Staff are passionate about the product and happy to make recommendations. Arrive at opening time on busy days to secure a seat.
