The center of the city has the Stadium Theatre if you'd like to see some decent shows. There's also many restaurants. Not sure about vegan options however.

The museum of work and culture is pretty interesting on the history of the area.

The Blackstone bike path has a few separate entrances, the one I usually explore is Hamlet Ave entrance.

If you go into the woods behind St. Joseph's Veteran's Association on Louise St, you will find some relatively undisturbed woods by the river.

South Main St has some stunning Victorian Era houses to admire.

There are many parks to visit. I like Globe Park, Cold Spring Park, and Cass Park personally.

There's Aero Trampoline Park, a couple of decent thrift stores.

I personally wouldn't recommend Chan's as everyone else has. My best friend worked there and he claims the roach problem is extremely bad. I wouldn't touch that place with a 10 foot pole, the owner, John Chan, is in corrupt cahoots with the local government to pass health inspections he should NOT be passing.
