Cost of a pint of lime a soda?

I was in a pub yesterday, for the lime and soda on the round (for my nephew who doesn’t drink alcohol), went back for it which is how I know how much it cost.
How much would it cost in your local?
In mine, they’d usually give it to you for free but I wasn’t at my local!!
Before anyone comes on to tell me I shouldn’t expect anything for free/col meaning they need to charge/someone has to serve, collect the glasses and wash the glass etc, I’m aware of those things and didn’t expect it for nothing. I was just surprised as at our local they’d not charge for it if part of a round.
It was lime cordial and then soda from a gun, not bottled. No ice or fresh wedge of lime.

In Spoons, it's only 38p for a half, 75p for a pint.

(And that's in central London!)

A hotel in Whitby once charged me £8. I left it and told them what I thought of them!

Gosh I am not sure but London prices. I remember going to a pub in Covent Garden (Punch and Judy?) and someone else was buying and I thought I would be good and go for an orange juice. They guy paying told me afterwards that the juice was the same price as the beer!!!!

It was £4.20 - I was shocked!

I would want my money back!

About £3. They have to make money.
I don't understand how pubs and cafes survive as it is!
