What is Jewels of Thought? A cafe? A record store? A wine bar? In truth, it’s all three. The east-end venture from DJ and musician Anthony Wendt – who releases music as Oisima – pulls off what similar businesses struggle to create: a space that effortlessly marries retail and hospitality.

Here you’ll find more than 2000 new and preloved records spanning genres like Balearic, psychedelia and reggae, along with jazz and soul. The space also hosts artist appearances, album launches, listening parties, live gigs and “tiny desk” concerts (inspired by the NPR series).

The coffee service runs until close and makes use of an Australian-Swiss-designed Nucleus Paragon pour-over stand, renowned for producing complex, aromatic filter coffee. Alongside it, small snacks and pastries are on rotation, with local wines and small-batch beers on offer until late.
