La Coupoule is a lovely, modern restaurant overlooking Place Georges Clemenceau in downtown Biarritz, with minimalist decor in shades of blue, green and yellow. It’s one of the first cafés I visited when I was struggling to get wifi in my apartment (long story) because it’s so close to where I live. The restaurant is surrounded by tables and chairs on the sidewalk, making it a perfect spot for people watching across from the busy plaza…
