bank branches

Neighborhood financial outlets

Bank branches are physical locations where a bank conducts business with customers—handling deposits, withdrawals, loans, and account services.

Despite the rise of online banking, branches remain important for transactions requiring face-to-face interaction: I had to visit a bank branch to notarize the documents.

The term distinguishes local offices from a bank's headquarters.
