That's a reasonable expectation in the south, but not in the north. 
Refills are not always included in the price anywhere else I've
ever been apart from the southeastern US, bounded by the Mississippi
River and the NC/VA border. Around here, some places offer free refills,
some don't. However, even if refills are not free, an attentive waiter
should ask if another drink is desired.
