It's a fee for them to serve the drinks you supplied on their premises. You don't get to use their premises and wait staff for free just because you supplied the drinks.

    You are already paying for the food, aren't you?

    So it isn't free.

    And you don't need wait staff to open your own bottle either.

    You know there are costs associated with serving alcohol in an establishment right?

    Also, a lot of bars and restaurants make nearly zero margin on their food. They stay afloat with the sale of alcohol.
