Midland State Bank Drive Thru

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Midland State Bank’s drive-thru and asked the teller, ‘Do you guys really keep your vault open 24/7?’ The teller smiled and nodded, but no one knows if it’s true—or just another Midland legend. A few days later, an elderly neighbor drove through and asked jokingly, 'So, is that vault always unlocked?' The teller winked and replied, 'Absolutely!' Just then, a security guard walked past with a large bag of donuts—apparently, they kept something else open around here too.

2. A curious package arrived one afternoon at Midland State Bank’s drive-thru window. The teller inside peered out curiously as a regular drove away with an unfamiliar box in hand. Later that evening, a neighbor stopped by to borrow some sugar. As they chatted, he mentioned seeing a strange box near the bank drive-thru. Turns out it was just the teller’s lunchbox, accidentally left behind earlier. Everyone had a good laugh over the mix-up.

3. A regular customer growled into the microphone one day: ‘I want to withdraw every penny from my account!’ The teller replied calmly: ‘No problem, sir—just pull forward.’ Suddenly, a delivery driver honked impatiently behind him and yelled through the intercom: ‘Hurry up in there, I’ve got a hot pizza waiting!’ The teller smiled sweetly and said: ‘One moment, sir… just give him your number so he can deliver it directly to your account.’

4. One stormy night, a nervous voice crackled over the intercom: 'Is your ATM accepting donations?' The teller smiled and replied, ‘Only if you’re depositing money!’ A quiet chuckle came through the speaker as the person on the other end said, ‘I’ll keep that in mind next time.’ The storm raged on, but Midland State Bank’s drive-thru remained open for both business and unexpected generosity.
