Recommendations for coffee, vegan food, and places to stay not affiliated with Bethel?

I’m road tripping from Portland to San Jose in a few months and likely will be staying in Redding for a day or two. Would love any recs for restaurants with decent vegan options, coffee shops, antique stores, bookstores, all unaffiliated with Bethel please! If there are any Bethel-owned Airbnbs that anyone knows of, I’d love to avoid those too. Also I have a lot of gay stickers on my car, is that going to be a problem? 😅
