yes and no. We have a kitchen full of food including hot drinks. The cost of this food is deducted from the bonus pool. We pay for it but don't really notice it.

Our office has free drinks for all employees--bottled water, soda drinks, tea and coffee. No booze though...

We get free water.

You can heat it up in the microwave if you want so I guess the answer is yes.

We have more soda, juice, and food at my office than you would know what to do with.

We have free hot drinks and free 24 hours of Cougargaurd. Except for an attorney's social every other week with free booze and food, and occasional socials and lunch barbecues (on the decks) involving staff) that's it. The coffee is bad enough that many of us still go to Starbucks.

There is complimentary coffee at my gym which I think is weird because the last thing I'd want to drink before, during or after a workout is something hot.
