The correct way is: US Bank cheque no 2345.
The word is: cheque
The adjective is: US Bank
You could have said: the American Bank cheque no 2345 (American Bank = adjective)

Since you are talking about the check (#3333), the descriptor for the check would be the adjective (Midtown bank). In English the modifier comes prior to the noun (Midtown bank check #3333). We call the president' home the White-house in espanol dices casa-blanca.

Hi, I'm from the midwest part of the USA. Let me help you.
1.U.S. Bank, check#2345
2.First Data , check#1234
3.Wells Fargo, check#3456

BANK , CHECK #5678 in that order.
And it is spelled Check in the USA.
The Canadians spell it cheque (FRENCH usage).
