Note
Only one meaning of the noun usual can take a plural. Its uncountable sense, the typical state of things, has none. Its countable, colloquial sense, the drink or dish someone always orders, does. So usuals means several customary orders, and it keeps that casual register of the bar or café counter. The singular is far more common, nearly always with the definite article: the usual, please.
