Frozen margaritas & 80s/90s music on lively back patio
"Who can say no to 80s and 90s throwback music and inexpensive frozen margaritas served in mason jars (have too many and they become "regretaritas")? Stop in for Happy Hour and enjoy the openness of the back patio. The crowd is nicely mixed, ranging from suits to recent grads to hipsters and anything in between. We typically find any reason to host an office event or Happy Hours here and even visit with friends on the weekends. Get there early so you don't miss out on the fun!" - Barrel
"Sweet and Vicious isn’t the sort place you bring someone to prove that you’re a person of substance who can do classy things, but we like it anyway. It’s a divey space, but it’s big, there are plenty of seats, and the drinks are relatively cheap (for Soho). Also, they open at noon every day. We wouldn’t recommend you come here in the daytime and drink inside (that might be sad), but if it’s nice out, the backyard is a perfectly good place to drink a strong frozen margarita out of a mason jar." - bryan kim, matt tervooren
"We wouldn’t say it’s dive bar, but Sweet & Vicious definitely isn’t fancy. It’s just a big, dark room in Soho where you can get an inexpensive drink and hang with a large group. So if you’re going out with a bunch of people downtown, this is a great place to start your night. Hang out for an hour or two, then go do something else (or stay all night). It gets pretty lively, and you’ll probably see at least one other birthday party." - hannah albertine, bryan kim
"Sweet and Vicious is a not-so-fancy bar in Nolita that's perfect for when you need a lot of space to drink with a group. You can get frozen margaritas in flavors like peach, mango, and guava, and there's a back patio where you can hang out." - kenny yang, bryan kim
"If you want to have an extremely casual group hang in Soho, you don’t really have that many options. Fortunately, there’s Sweet & Vicious. This place isn’t quite a dive bar, but it also isn’t really “nice.” Mostly, it’s just a big room with semi-cheap drinks and some lighting fixtures that might have been salvaged from a medieval dungeon. This place is usually a good time, and on Fridays during the summer you’ll find groups of coworkers packed onto the back patio drinking frozen margaritas and saying things they’ll regret the next morning." - bryan kim, katherine lewin, neha talreja, kenny yang
