Licensed premises in Australia are legally obliged to serve drinking water to anyone who requests it, either free or at a reasonable cost. It's a part of the Responsible Service of Alcohol laws.

I was about to say, but then another Australian beat me to it.
Always weird finding an Australian out in the wild, isn't it? You just take it for granted there won't be another one on the forum/comments section of wherever you visit, because you're already filling the Token Designated Australian slot by being there yourself.

We have a lot of variations from state-to-state in the US, but in my state it is law to give a cup of free water—even if you sell bottled water. Every bar I've been to offers it, too (I always order water with my drinks).
Of course, just because something is law doesn't mean people will choose to follow it. This bar tender could be uneducated or just an angry and wanting $$$ regardless of what their law is.

Well, here's a point. It may not be anything to do with laws or the bar's policy. It may just be frustration on the bartender's fault. Clinton is just waiting on the bus. Which means that the area where the buses stop probably doesn't have a waiting area of it's own, or one that is uncomfortable. And the bar is probably the closest place where you can sit down in comfort. So she probably has a lot of people just coming down and squatting until their boss shows up. Would you like it if your work had an issue day after day of people just coming in, hanging out and never buying anything?
Cartagia:
I think we found the real asshole in this story, bar lady.
BlueFatima:
Why do I have the feeling this is going to end with Clinton getting drunk and doing something out of character?
