New Redding barbershop welcomes the arts. Game lounge back in business
Taylor Pearson has opened a barbershop that caters to the arts. A first in Redding? Pearson recently opened Kickstand Barbershop inside the former Sakuro Sushi building at 2130 East St. The popular restaurant closed a few years ago after nearly 40 years in business. "I'm happy to be in this spot. It has a lot of history; it was a staple in Redding," Pearson said. "It's cool I'm able to do something in here, so it's not just vacant." Kickstand joins a growing number of barbershops, especially in downtown Redding. Pearson, a Foothill High School graduate, went through the Shasta Cosmetology barbershop program, graduating in early 2022. “It seems like a lot of people are going into the trades. My guess is people are seeking something where they don’t want to go to college, but they can still make a decent buck,” Pearson said of the number of barbershops in Redding. Pearson describes his business as barbershop during the day and a place that can host the arts when he’s not cutting hair. “So I grew up in the DIY (do it yourself) music space, people hosting live music in a coffee shop or their living rooms,” he said. “So

Smack N' Burgers a new age burger scene with old-school charm
At Market Street Smack N' Burgers, everything revolves around the fusion of the old school and the new school. According to the husband and wife duo who own the joint, Kevin Le and Amanda Meuy (pronounced May), their Smack N' burgers — most of which come with a crispy smashed patty, American cheese, their signature Smack N' Sauce and all the traditional veggie fixings on a potato bun — were designed to be a combination of the simplified smash burger that took the world by storm over the last decade, and the classic veggie-stacked burger. But whereas the old-school style involved "frozen pucks you throw on (a grill)," Le said, Smack N' Burgers prides themselves on their fresh, never frozen, angus beef and vegetables prepped for service daily. "Nothing's sitting for two or three days or whatever it is. It's that day," said Le. The historied building that houses Smack N' Burgers has also been imbued with a modern touch. Located on 3443 South Market Street, the building has long been the home of old-school burger spots. Most will remember it as Pop's 50's Place , but before that it was an A&W Root Beer drive-in in 1960s and '70s,

2 Redding restaurants, gaming lounge close. IHOP's back | The Buzz
While the restaurant cited several things that led to its closing, the Olney Creek Bridge replacement project certainly played a role in Bird & Beef’s decision. The restaurant, which opened in November 2025 in the old Snack Shack building on Eastside Road, posted on its Facebook page on Sept. 9: “Over the last couple of months, Bird & Beef has been navigating a lot of changes with the construction on our road, traffic flow, staffing, and rising food costs.” Bird & Beef is just yards away from the bridge replacement project, which has been long delayed. But work has kicked into high gear over the last several months. That work has reduced traffic to one lane for portions of Eastside Road. Vehicles traveling north and south are piloted via temporary traffic signals. The wait for the light to turn green backs up traffic on Eastside Road in both directions. In its Facebook message, Bird & Beef stated the work made it a challenge for customers. “We’re incredibly grateful for all the love and support you’ve shown us over the last year. Our joy has been getting to cook for you, create something new, and bring fun, creative food to the
