Probly one of the only shops I didn't like! I liked the shop overall very nice and clean, however the budtender was very pushy, and the place was extremely crowded everyday I went by the place. I dont mind a huge crowd by any means but when its standing room only I rather smoke my buds elsewhere.

Wenn I vistited the Dampkring2 in April 2009 I realy liked the place!
Very friendly dealer, who had no problem with doing quite a few "samples" for me, cause I wanted to try a lot of strains but didn´t like to buy a whole gram of each...
The Rifman hash that was recommended by him was VERY good and really was worth the prize
And I liked the modern interior furnishing... I would describe it as "futuristic".
I remember talking to the very friendly (and cute!) barmaids... they served me a real good chocolate milk shake, and one of them was a VW T2-bus fan just like me!
I had a good time and will definitely return there next time I´ll be in town...

Visited Dampkring 2 in August 09 - couldn't find (didn't look that hard in truth!) Dampkring on Handboogstraat.
Probably the busiest shop we went to - queued for 5/10 minutes before getting served. Great menu, really good Cheese & SSH, the only 2 strains we bought.
Futuristic decor pretty much covers it...the place is very metallic as I remember, flat screens sunk into the walls showing random crazy videos. Not a place I would stop and chill in for long, but still recommended for the top notch menu and location on Haarlemmerstraat.
Going back to 'Dam in November - any suggestions on what I should try from the menu this time round would be totally appreciated.

Bought 1g of lavender and 1g f Rifman Laila. Shop was kind of empty when I popped in, (unlike Greenhouse just up road that was packed) which was a bonus.
Lavender had a nice taste to it but high wasn't particularly strong but for a first smoke of trip was acceptable. The Laila hash I think was really nice, I say think cause it was around 2 am and I was barely awake at that point anyway
Nice shop, nice dealers, good smokes - what's not to like. This time didn't get harassed into buying a drink either

too commercial
The old Pink Floyd was more to my liking (I'm different, I know). Being a bit older we enjoy a more homey atmosphere. This was just for a different clientel...the young and hopping crowd.
I thought their new concrete counter was very nice though...didn't buy anything from it though.

dampkring 2
Liked this place a lot. bought two types of weed, laughing buddah and white russian. both good for daytime tripping. The budtender also recommended a hash that he said was almost as strong as their iceolator, and sold me a third of a gram. Bedtime was at 8 that night

Have tried SSH, Lavendar, G13/Amnesia, from here during the Ic Mag Cup
in April 2009. These samples were smoked together with a few growers and
they all were impressed that these were from a coffeeshop.
From the information that I have, the strains that all the Daampkring shops
offer on their menu, can be bought at Bij for a better price. And as far as
I understand that is what a lot of folks are doing that live in NL.

Yeah, all three strains I bought from here were rock hard and crumbly the next day. They were in three seperate zip-lock bags kept in the same place as always. What gives? Still smoked ok effects wise, but the taste had changed heaps.
Also, I don't like the interior of the place. Super modern, computer monitors set into the counter, lots of grey and black granite. Not my thing I'm afraid, had a cheesey nightclub kind of vibe.
So I don't think I'll go back, although I walk past it most days might pop in again in the future if someone can give me a really really good reason to..
