FFL has been around for a hundred years or something right here in Lakewood. A nice community bank that has all the bells and whistles of the major banks without the sterile, major-bank feel. They are part of an ATM network so you are never far from a free ATM no matter where you are in the country, you can get auto bill pay and all that stuff too. They are particularly interested in hooking you up if you are trying to buy property or invest in Lakewood - the true definition of a community bank. When we were shopping around for mortgages last year, they were FAR AND AWAY offering us the best deal.
The main branch lobby on Detroit Ave is spacious and even when it's busy, you won't have a long wait for a teller. The safe deposit box lady is always pleasant and remembers us when we come in. A great bank I'd recommend to anyone. Especially after coming from our old US Bank branch (see my US Bank review), we feel much more at home with FFL. If you're looking for a new bank and you live on the west side, you really should check them out.
