I was told I was barred from a public place by security. I was never issued a trespass order by law enforcement or told by owner. I am repeatedly invited to events at this business through business social site page. Is this legal in Florida. I was at one time emplored there as security. I was told that a cpl of patrons did not feel safe with me in the bar, I have not had any problems at this bar during or after my employment

A place such as a bar does have the right to bar you (unless it is based on race, gender, etc.). Since security is the one that told you, that should be sufficient to charge with "Trespass after warning" which is a misdemeanor. If that did happen, you may still have a defense, but I suggest you stay away from there for a while.
