This used to be the Wig and Pen, but was refurbished recently and reopend as Copa. Warm and pleasant, well-lit with nice deep-pile carpets. Distracting television machines hanging from the walls. Serves a resasonable range of continental beers and lagers. Better than average pub food, reasonably priced at GBP 5.95 for burger and chips, with a range of more interesting main dishes at around GBP 10.00.

Drinks here are more expensive than your average pub, but not out of line with other places that serve continental beers. GBP 3 is typical for a drink (which may not be a pint), though the original entry for this pub claimed GBP 4.20 so caveat emptor.

The only place in Oxford which serves Leffé Brune on tap, though Far From The Madding Crowd has it in bottles.

May well appeal if the thought of drinking somewhere where they spell beer as 'bier' gets you going.
