By law, must restaurants in California provide water free of charge?

The restaurant in question is a sit down restaurant as opposed to a stand. It has been in operation for decades and has just begun to charge .25 for a bottle of water and providing no tap water whatsoever. (They do have fountain drinks and a full bar)

Granted, 25 cents is very inexpensive for a bottle of water and it is nice to have the option but is it legal? Wouldn't eating establishments need to provide drinking water at no cost? I saw a court case years back about a roller rink that charged for water. They lost, but i don't know in which state.

Anyone know anything about this?

Thanks.

    I don't know but it is sure a sorry direction we are taking in so many ways.

    It is the notion of lack that fosters greed and idiocy when the only lack is in our own understanding.

    Water is not free the restaurant has to pay for it and no law can compel a any business to give anything for free

    What God could have for us is maximum surprising. the tip sport? What end sport? There are actually outcomes whichever way. in basic terms God can do God's will the mostest. i for my area, shall objective to do as God could have me do... God speaks to us all in lots of strategies, including voices, desires, visions and so on. loose will operates out of decision, loose will is thereabouts the devil's will, to me for my area. this is an apple genesis tale back. do no longer settle for apples from the devil. do no longer settle for apples from the devils. Ask God approximately apple of existence, & apple of expertise. do no longer take from the centre tree. God so knows. Ask God first. a lot of my braincells look to think of they have a will, whilst in actuality, all they have is volition. God knows. Will is largely undesirable, i for my area does no longer bypass alongside that course. Grace is maximum better. Grace comes at Grace velocity. thank you be to God.
