Method 1
as @Tonydjukic mentioned, the best way is get user role first and then showing content to him.
also with this code we can do it :
$user = wp_get_current_user();
$allowed_roles = array( 'administrator', 'customer' );
if ( array_intersect( $allowed_roles, $user->roles ) ) {
}
Method 2
You could use register_post_type_args filter to change public to false depending on your users role.

Method 3
if you want to use the plugin.
Advance Access manager.

The plugin basically allows you to not only manage access to the backend and front for specific posts. But also hide menu and dashboard entries.
