Comcast Expands in Ocean County: New Xfinity Store Opens in Brick Plaza
17-09-2025 05:51 PM
Comcast has continued its commitment to Ocean County with
the opening of a brand-new Xfinity Store at 56 Chambers Bridge Road in the
Brick Plaza shopping center. This new location is the latest addition to
Comcast’s growing network of retail stores in New Jersey, designed to bring
customers closer to the company’s wide range of internet, TV, mobile, and
smart home solutions.
The Brick store offers an upgraded, interactive shopping
experience that feels more like a modern tech showroom than a
traditional service center. For residents in and around Brick, it provides a
convenient hub to explore the latest technology, troubleshoot services, or
simply stop by for billing assistance.
A Look
Back: Toms River and Stafford Stores
While the Brick Plaza location is the newest Xfinity
Store in Ocean County, it’s not the first. Comcast has been steadily
investing in the region with earlier openings in Toms River and Stafford
(Manahawkin).
The Toms
River Store
In Toms River, Comcast replaced several older, traditional
service centers—including locations in Brick, Manchester, and along Route
37—with a modern Xfinity Store on Hooper Avenue. This marked a major
shift in how the company serves customers.
Instead of waiting in line at outdated counters, residents
could walk into a bright, open-concept retail space, complete with demo
stations, interactive displays, and comfortable seating. A large TV at the
center of the store showcases the Xfinity X1 entertainment platform,
while other stations highlight Xfinity Mobile devices, smart home products,
and internet solutions.
The Toms River opening represented the beginning of Comcast’s
strategy to bring a more hands-on, Apple Store-style experience to Ocean
County customers.
The
Stafford (Manahawkin) Store
Shortly after Toms River, Comcast unveiled its second
Ocean County store in Stafford Township, located on Martin Truex Jr.
Boulevard near the Manahawkin Commons Shopping Center.
This 4,500-square-foot store was designed to serve
southern Ocean County, offering residents in towns like Stafford, Barnegat, and
Long Beach Island a closer option for in-person support. With the Manahawkin
location, Comcast ensured customers didn’t have to drive far north to Toms
River or Brick to get the help and services they needed.
Together, the Toms River and Stafford stores laid the
foundation for Comcast’s retail expansion in the county. Now, with the
addition of the Brick Plaza store, Comcast has created a three-location
network that covers the entire region.
