My understanding of how much soft drinks cost anywhere might be a tad fuzzy these days.

Also despite my joke earlier, tap water is free in restaurants but you have to say tap water. Ask for water and they will bring you mineral water, and will charge you accordingly.
Sounds like the general trend outside Germany as well. Hereabouts, tap water is freely available, but ordering it is kind of frowned upon.
