A big, high-ceilinged café-bar at the bottom of rue des Martyrs, named as a wink to its neighbour La Cigale: old wood panelling, a chandelier made of glass bottles and large windows. It is where Parisians drink before and after concerts at La Cigale, La Boule Noire and the Trianon, at prices kept low for the area.

- Pair it with a show at La Cigale, a few steps along the boulevard.
