Yes, you can be banned from entering a private business premises (even one that is open to the public). As a general rule, a business has the right to manage and control the business premises as they see fit. Therefore, a business is within its rights to establish its own rules for admitting or banning people from the property. That having been said, such a prohibition cannot be based on a person's race, religion, nationality, gender, disability or age (40 and over).
