It offers a new concept of wine shop, where the most representative drinks of this region are selected and promoted. The option was clear: to have only Douro and Minho wines.

Who does not remember the famous La Coppa crepes and pancakes?
With a renewed image, Nova Copa offers its customers the same crepes and the same pancakes as always, made with the same hand.
From its menu we also highlight the 100% homemade hamburgers, which are recommended to be accompanied by a sangria of sparkling wine and strawberry, a homemade beer or a good glass of wine.
To finish, drink a coffee or decaf with a mint, chamomile or vanilla flavour, accompanied by an After Eight mint, a slice of salami or a ‘brigadeiro’ (the ingredients of the ‘brigadeiro’ are condensed milk, powdered chocolate, butter or margarine and granulated chocolate for the coverage), always with the quality that is recognised in the service of the Nova Copa.
