How to find your branch's exact opening time

Go to the First Bank website and use their branch locator tool. Enter your city, zip code, or street address, and the tool will display all nearby branches with their full hours of operation. Each listing includes the phone number for that branch, so you can call to confirm hours before you go.

If you already have a First Bank account, you can also check hours through their mobile app. Open the app, tap the branch locator or ATM finder, and search by location. The app shows real-time hours and directions.

Weekday hours and when branches are busiest

Weekday opening times cluster around 8 a.m. to 9 a.m., though branches in downtown areas or financial districts sometimes open at 7:30 a.m. to serve commuters. Closing times on weekdays are typically 5 p.m. or 6 p.m., with some branches staying open until 7 p.m. on Thursday or Friday.

Branches tend to be busiest during lunch hours (11 a.m. to 1 p.m.) and right after work (4 p.m. to 5 p.m.). If you want shorter wait times, visit early in the morning or mid-afternoon on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

Weekend and holiday hours

Saturday hours begin at 9 a.m. at most locations, though some branches open at 10 a.m. Closing time on Saturday is usually 1 p.m., though larger branches in shopping centers may stay open until 2 p.m. or 3 p.m. First Bank branches are closed on Sunday.

On federal holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Day, and Independence Day, First Bank branches are closed. Some holidays like Presidents' Day or Memorial Day may also affect hours, so check the branch locator or call ahead if you're planning a visit around a holiday.

What to do if you need banking outside branch hours

First Bank operates 24/7 ATMs at most branch locations, so you can withdraw cash, deposit checks, or check your balance any time. Many ATMs accept mobile check deposits through the First Bank app, which means you don't need to visit a branch to deposit a check.

For account questions or transactions that require a teller, First Bank offers phone banking and online banking. You can also reach customer service by phone during extended hours — check your account statement or the website for the customer service number and their hours.

Planning your visit to avoid delays

Before heading to a branch, confirm the hours on the website or app, especially if you're visiting a location you haven't been to before. Some branches close for lunch (usually 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.), though this is less common at larger locations. If you need to speak with a specific department like mortgage services or business banking, call ahead to confirm someone is available.

Bring your ID and any documents you'll need for your transaction. If you're depositing checks or opening an account, having everything ready when you arrive cuts down your time in the branch.
