Coffeeshopamsterdam

The dampkring was founded in 1993 by Jeroen and Paul; it quickly gained international fame when the American blockbuster Ocean’s Twelve was filmed inside the coffeeshop.

Jeroen and Paul are also the founders of one of the oldest coffeeshops of Amsterdam: Tweede Kamer Coffeeshop.  Its a small coffeeshop in the city centre with mostly local visitors. Its also well known throughout the Netherlands. Jeroen left the business in 2001. Paul opened a second dampkring in 2007 on the location of Haarlemmerstraat. In 2011 he sold both of the dampkring’s. In 2016 Paul returned as co-owner again of the dampkring Haarlemmerstraat 44. To end the confusion between two dampkring coffeeshops, it was decided in August 2017 to add an extra name for the Haarlemmerstraat.
