After closing at the start of the pandemic, San Francisco video bar Badlands reopened Oct. 4 under new management.
After permanently closing at the start of the pandemic, Castro video dance bar Badlands reopened Oct. 4 under new management. On Sept. 10, the storied gay bar posted an announcement on its Facebook page that it would reopen at 4121 18th St. and called for bartenders to apply. It was the bar’s first post since 2020, when it shared that it was shuttering permanently. On Wednesday, a Hoodline reporter posted photos of a full dance floor and bar on X, formerly known as Twitter.
A later California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control investigation cleared Natali of the allegations, but some would-be patrons remain unconvinced. “That bar has always been garbage and owned by a racist dickwad,” one X user posted in reference to Badlands on Thursday, the day after it reopened. Natali has also earned notoriety as a landlord for evicting popular tenants and leaving at least one Castro storefront empty for more than a decade.
