Le Square Trousseau
In the story · Bastille segment (12e)
Isabel Coixet's 'Bastille' plays out at a table in this Belle Époque brasserie, where Sergio waits to leave his wife for a younger woman, and instead learns she is dying and, remembering the red trench coat of their first years together, falls in love with her again. Zinc bar, moulded ceilings and a terrace on the leafy square: the room is exactly as filmed.

Where to stand for the photo
From inside the railings of the Square Trousseau garden, frame the corner facade and its red awning with the plane trees overhead; book a window table to sit where Sergio waited.
