Elis's Pizzeria & Family Restaurant

I took advantage of the warm February weather and had an afternoon adventure riding through Rancocas State Park! This 1200 acre space surrounds the area where the historic Rancocas Creek splits into its north and south branches. Established in 1965, this New Jersey State Park has over 13 miles of trails, access to the creek for canoeing, and a nature center. I parked at the Rancocas Rd entrance in Hainesport to ride the blue Creekside Trail and the orange Red Fox Trail. It took me about 50 minutes to complete a 4 mile loop. When I pulled up this friendly guy had just finished biking so I asked for some advice and he gave me a map. He suggested that I walk my bike up the steep hill to the right and start the blue trail from there. During my ride I experienced a variety of environments and terrain with plenty of great views. The highlight of my adventure was the frequent change in elevation. Some parts of the trail were so steep I decided to walk my bike up or down these hills, which you don’t find often in South Jersey! I will definitely go back to explore the other trails along with the abandoned cabin and eventually take a trip with my canoe. Rancocas State Park is a beautiful place to enjoy nature and get a challenging workout! 🚴‍♂️🌲🛶🏖️

Hands down my favorite place to order from, the food is absolutely delicious. For as long as I have been ordering from them, they have never slacked on their food quality or portion size. As a reoccurring customer it’s easy to see that the family who owns this place are some of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet, they really appreciate all of their customers! I highly recommend ordering from Elis’s literally anytime you have an excuse to order out.

A gem in the backyard, nice trails with beautiful views ofRancocas creek. Different trails and diverse vegetation. While there visit Rancocas Nature Center. Helpful friendly volunteers with lot of insights of the area.

They are so friendly on the phone. Excellent customer service and I’m a customer service manager!! Food is awesome and more often than none delivered before the ETA!!

Trails are well kept and give beautiful views of the river and streams. Be mindful of poison ivy if you go off trail though.

This park is a great lightly used hiking area. Great for biking, hiking and kayaking. We spend a lot of time on the trails with our dog and rarely see anybody. The trails are mostly wide and well maintained and many have views of the Rancocas Creek. There are many access points from Mt Laurel Hainesport and Westampton. All trails is probably your best guide

My son and I enjoyed the 3.2 mile blue trail that goes along the Rancocas Creek. It's very scenic and beautiful. The paths are well marked and not difficult to hike. Parts of the trail are beginning to be overgrown so I'd recommend pants and definitely bug spray as it can be buggy but fortunately not the kind that bite. Also as a point of information, there are no facilities so plan accordingly.
