The food here is great! Decent bourbon menu along with friendly staff. An added bonus is that the pizza taste just as good left over and reheated! Definitely worth the money! The menu is also very gluten free friendly, my wife is has celiacs and she says that they have the best gluten free pizza around!

Amazing gluten-free burgers and a dedicated fryer. The staff was amazing and even brought condiment containers out to verify gluten-free options.

Loved Rich’s. Brought my dad for a dinner because he’s a big bourbon guy. The list is endless, and he had a lot of fun perusing. The food was delicious and I was impressed by the pretty good selection of gluten free options. My dad bought a bottle of bourbon and was super excited about that. I will absolutely go back and had a great time. Our server was comically mean but everything else was so good that it didn’t hurt the experience.

A chill spot with low lighting and a relaxed vibe, perfect for an early lunch, though a bit pricey for what you get.

Went here for an early lunch on a weekday, it wasn't busy. They had enough staff who seemed pretty attentive. It smelled a little weird when we walked in. Like mop water. Our food was good, seemed a little overpriced for lunch even downtown. I liked the low lighting and that it wasn't very loud. They seemed to have some gluten free options including the picture I include in this review.

I had an amazing experience here! I am gluten free. I have never eaten somewhere that went as far as The Standard to be sure I did not get any gluten. They went above and beyond!! The food was great and I didn't have any gluten! I would highly recommend this restaurant!!

We enjoyed a delicious dinner at Coppins while we were staying at Hotel Covington. I enjoyed the pimento cheese deviled eggs as a starter and the Pat LaFrieda Dry Aged Prime Sirloin Strip as my entree. It was so tasty! I was thrilled that they had so many gluten free options. My son enjoyed the Beer Battered Cheese Curds as his starter and the Coppin’s Burger for his entree. For dessert, I enjoyed the milk chocolate pudding (seriously delicious) and my son enjoyed the sorbet. Coppins is the perfect destination for a girl's night out, date night or special occasion or in our case mom/son date night! Don't be concerned if you think the menu is small because every single item we tried was delicious and there is something for everyone. Even my picky teen was happy and that is saying a lot! He requested to go back on our last night in town. Plus, they will customize to suit your needs. The service was outstanding, and the atmosphere was too!

They serve gluten free food that tastes phenomenal!!! I had the fried chicken sandwich (sans bun) on a bed of greens. Yes, I said fried! It's coated in rice flour and fried in a gluten free fryer! The fries are great too!

My husband and I had never been here before. It was a pleasant experience. I had chicken marsala and he had calamari. The staff was very helpful, friendly & accommodating. The food was good but honestly, too salty for us. Everything was very salty. Another couple who was sitting near us had the same concern. The view is unbeatable. Gorgeous. If you have to eat gluten free like me, however, your options are very limited. They do have items on their menu that are gluten free. But if you are in the mood for pasta and the like you're out of luck. Over all, very nice.
