There are regional differences in the US as well. If you live in southern Wisconsin and stop in a park for a drink you look for the "bubbler". Everywhere else that I lived you would look for a "drinking fountain". There were ones that delivered water continuously so deserved the term bubbler. No municipality in the southwest US would be likely to allow that because it wastes too much precious water.

There was a bubbler in Sauk City WI that I used to pass occasionally on business route US Highway 12 in the 1970s. It ran all the time but the water tasted faintly of gasoline. Turns out that was the original US HY 12 years ago and an abandoned gasoline station had polluted the groundwater with gasoline that got sucked up by a nearby municipal well. Eventually the town had to abandon that well and move to one farther away from the old US12.
