About Us
Step into the 1873 Old City House Inn and Restaurant and you’ll be swept away by its historic relevance and distinctive legacy to St. Augustine. Pair the Inn with its charming new innkeepers, Ilse and James Philcox, and you have a world-class story of romance and adventure! Enter Ilse from South Africa, whose worldly travels and passion for entertaining brought her to St. Augustine thinking of buying a Bed & Breakfast…James from England, engineer, dreaming about the culinary field and owning a restaurant of distinction. Meeting at an English Pub in 1998 was no accident. The Old City House had to happen!
