It's used to ask someone what is the pleasure. It's an uncountable noun. Pleasure is a feeling of happiness, enjoyment, or satisfaction...
Example:
He smiled with pleasure when she walked in.
... or when you are in a restaurant and you would be asked by a waiter "what's your pleasure" meaning as what would you like to drink. :) or anything other what makes the asked person happy in any other situation! lol

'What's your pleasure?' is most often used when asking someone what they would like to drink. It can be said by someone working in a bar or by someone in whose house you are a guest. Alternatives would be. 'What would you like to drink?' 'What can I get you?'
It is also sometimes used to ask what someone's preference or wish is for a variety of choices such as food, music and sexual preferences.

This is usually asked by someone who sells food or drink, like a bartender. For example, they ask " What's your pleasure?" and you say "I'll have a bud light.". It isn't that common in America.

This sort of question is rarely used nowadays. If you are in a bar, the bar person will say: What will it be? What will you have?
