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.
