Do you mean based on personal appearance or ANY reason a business wants to use to bar a customer?
Do they have a right not to serve Jews or Christians?Green Party or Populist Party members?Gays or adulterers?
Please clarify.

If you follow freedom of association, yes. You are free to patronize any business (or not patronize) and businesses are free to choose who to serve.

A private business (unlike public utilities) can target it's customer base as narrow as it chooses. If I only want to sell furniture to people with hazel eyes or jews or whatever, then I'm free to do so. No that I would get much business and my business would likely fail.
