I haven't seen anything reported that mentions a white person being in that same Starbucks, asking to use the washroom and then sitting down without buying anything and being allowed to stay.
Like all these things, there is the story each side tells and the truth is somewhere in middle. There is probably more to the story, but doubtful we'll hear it.
WRT your other post about refusing service, having non-paying customers leave/removed or not allowing them use of your facilities isn't denial of service.
