First Bank branch hours vary by location and day of the week

First Bank does not have a single opening time across all branches. Most locations open at 9:00 a.m. on weekdays, but some open at 8:00 a.m., and a few open at 10:00 a.m. Saturday hours typically start at 9:00 a.m. or 10:00 a.m., and most branches are closed on Sundays. The only way to know your specific branch's hours is to look them up by location.

First Bank operates in multiple states—primarily Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, and Mississippi—and each branch sets its own schedule within company guidelines. A branch in downtown Nashville may have different hours than one in a smaller town thirty miles away. Holiday schedules also shift, so a branch that normally opens at 9:00 a.m. might not open until 10:00 a.m. on the day after Thanksgiving.

How to find your branch's exact opening time

The fastest way is to visit firstbank.com and use their branch locator tool. Enter your city or zip code, and the tool will show you the address, phone number, and hours for each nearby branch. The hours listed are current and account for holiday changes.

You can also call your branch directly. The phone number appears in the branch locator, and staff can confirm today's hours and tell you if there are any schedule changes coming up. If you are planning a visit for a specific reason—depositing a check, opening an account, getting a cashier's check—calling ahead takes thirty seconds and prevents a wasted trip.

Online and mobile banking work around the clock

First Bank's online banking platform and mobile app are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can check your balance, transfer money between accounts, pay bills, and deposit checks by phone camera at any time, including nights, weekends, and holidays. The mobile deposit feature—where you photograph the front and back of a check and submit it through the app—processes on the next business day.

If you need to move money urgently outside branch hours, online banking handles most routine transactions. The exception is anything that requires a teller or manager decision—such as disputing a transaction, requesting a wire transfer, or opening a new account type—which must wait until a branch is open.

ATM access does not depend on branch hours

First Bank ATMs are available 24 hours a day. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks, transfer funds, and check your balance at any First Bank ATM regardless of whether the branch is open. If you use an ATM outside the First Bank network, you may be charged a fee by the other bank, though First Bank reimburses some out-of-network fees depending on your account type.

The ATM network includes locations inside branches, at grocery stores, and at other retail locations throughout First Bank's service area. Your debit card works at all of them.

Drive-through windows have separate hours

Some First Bank branches have drive-through windows with hours that differ from the main lobby. A branch might open its lobby at 9:00 a.m. but the drive-through at 8:00 a.m., or close the drive-through at 5:00 p.m. while the lobby stays open until 6:00 p.m. The branch locator tool shows drive-through hours separately if your branch has one.

Drive-through service is limited compared to the lobby. You can deposit checks and cash, withdraw money, and handle basic transactions, but you cannot open new accounts or speak with a loan officer through the drive-through window.

Holiday schedules close most branches

First Bank closes all branches on major holidays: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Some branches may also close on Good Friday or other regional holidays. The branch locator tool updates to show holiday closures, usually several weeks in advance.

On holidays, ATMs and online banking remain available. If you need cash or need to move money on a holiday, use an ATM or your phone. If you need to speak with someone, you will have to wait until the next business day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I deposit a check after the branch closes?

Yes, through mobile deposit in the First Bank app. Photograph both sides of the check and submit it through the app at any time. The deposit posts to your account on the next business day. You can also deposit checks at an ATM if your branch has one, though not all do.

What if I need to speak to someone outside branch hours?

First Bank offers phone support during business hours, which typically align with branch hours. For urgent issues outside those hours, check your account statement or the back of your debit card for a customer service number. Some issues—such as a lost card or fraudulent transaction—have 24-hour support lines.

Do all First Bank branches have the same hours?

No. While most open at 9:00 a.m. on weekdays, some open earlier or later. Weekend and holiday hours also vary by location. Use the branch locator tool to see the exact schedule for the branch you plan to visit.

Is First Bank open on Saturday?

Most branches are open on Saturday, typically from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. or 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., but hours vary. Check your specific branch's schedule in the branch locator. All branches are closed on Sunday.

Can I do everything online that I can do in a branch?

Most routine tasks—checking balances, transferring money, paying bills, depositing checks—work online. You cannot open certain account types, explore for loans, or dispute transactions online. For those, you need to visit a branch or call during business hours.
