Price: Expensive•Cocktail Bar•4.9(396)The Ebenezer is downtown Plymouth’s first and only speakeasy, and one of the few in the Metro Detroit area. Hidden in plain view off Fleet Street and nestled in the basement of the former First National Bank of Plymouth (now occupied by The Ledger), its moniker comes from Ebenezer J. Penniman, the first to be appointed president of the bank in 1871. While the tellers, loan officers, and deposit slips are long gone, the former vault still exists as the bar’s private tasting room, equipped with lockers for members and an ambiance reminiscent of the roaring 1920’s mixed in and elegantly spun with today’s vibe that can be felt throughout the entire space. The Ebenezer encompasses over 4,000 square feet with a capacity of 127 serving craft cocktails, wine, craft beer and a small menu of shareable plates.
Selden Standard
Price: Very Expensive•Contemporary American•4.8(454)Selden Standard’s fare features flavors born in local farms, captured at the peak of the season, prepared in their wood-fired oven, and served small plates-style in shareable portions. Complementing the menu are wines from small producers, distinctive brews, and cocktails to suit the seasons. Selden is rustic and casual, but with an ever-present eye for quality, creativity, and fun. Chef Andy Hollyday is a 2023 James Beard Foundation finalist and four-time semi-finalist. Selden Standard was also twice named a James Beard semi-finalist for Outstanding Restaurant (2024, 2025), and has been named Restaurant of the Year by both the Detroit Free Press (2015) and Hour Detroit (2016).London Chop House

Price: Very Expensive•Contemporary European•4.6(28)Our menu changes with the seasons, and what we think looks good right now. We start with whatever we harvested from our garden this morning, or with whatever our farmers dropped off today. We're building relationships with the people who grow our food and make our wine - people who care as much about their craft as we do about ours. We take our wine and our food seriously. Everything else? It’s just dinner with friends.
Since opening in 2022, we've been recognized as the Detroit Free Press Restaurant of the Year in 2023, one of Bon Appetit's Best New Restaurants of 2023 and in America's Best Restaurants of 2023 list by the New York Times.
