Really great breakfast experience. I found this cafe just randomly while searching for toyota store. It is located inside the store so was bit hard to find lol but it was well worth it. Owner is amazing at providing you with great food and prices are amazing as well. Portion size was great and coffee and toast was free with meal. I would recommend everyone to try just one thing if I have to say is salt and pepper were not upto my taste levels but you can always ask for more. I didnt knew that but it tasted good anyways so didnt ask for more. I would recommend the spinach swiss cheese omlet and western omlet. Will also love to try the bagels next as I have heard good things about there bagels.

Absolutely love this place! This is my first time coming here. The coffee and breakfast are really great, but what really makes it stand out is the amazing service. The staff are always super friendly, welcoming, and polite. Whether you're grabbing something to go or hanging out for a bit, highly recommend this café!

Yummy! Friendly! Fresh! Clean! OK, it was difficult to find - yes it is located within the Toyota dealership. Park anywhere and go inside, the diner is on the 2nd floor. Our breakfasts were so delicious and prepared exactly as we asked. NO salt used, which I appreciate, very much. Excellent air quality. The chef and sous chef are wonderful and so accommodating. VERY reasonable prices. #localguide

Dily's is an outstanding little café inside the Toyota dealership. The food is outstanding as is the price! I get food from here pretty often and it's never been less than great. I usually order the breakfast sandwich. It comes with a pile of fruit and a load of potatoes as well. If you're in the area, do yourself a favour and get something, it won't be the last time you order from here.

Great place with good, hearty food in an odd location. Yes, as others have pointed out, it's inside the Toyota dealership. Just go in the regular sales entrance, walk past the front desk, up the stairs, and you're right there. A few tables and seats for guests, including sofas for the customer lounge. You can also sit at a a bar height counter and enjoy the view over the service bay. Definitely unique! We had breakfast and some sandwiches. Huge portions! Great service. Nice guys behind the counter. They also had some kind of stew served with rice. We didn't get that, but seemed to be a favourite with the staff working in the dealership. Food was good, coffee was good. Would definitely recommend.

Went there for breakfast this morning. We were skeptical and hesitant when we arrived to discovere that it was inside the Toyota dealership (2nd floor) but so glad we went inside. Delicious and generous portions of food served on real dishes, kind and friendly service, clean environment. Breakfast included 2 eggs, 2 sausages, 2 strips of bacon, home fried potatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe, pineapple and some amazing white melon from Brazil, and 2 toasts -- all for about $12. So good, I didn't even need to add salt or pepper. Looking forward to going back again. This is one of Ottawa's best kept secrets - in Barrhaven. Thank you Dily's for a nice first impression!

Calling all people that wanna find that hidden gem of a place for a quick, cheap, simple, easy and well crafted breakfast. Came here during work to grab some quick breakfast and was so confused to discover it was in the top section of a Toyota dealership. The guy working here is incredible. Hardworking and did not let the odd placement of his kitchen affect his work. For what I paid for what I got, I feel like I may have found the best deal in Ottawa. This guy and this place deserves everyone's attention. Highly recommend, and if you can get past the smell of tires, the sounds of sales people and customers tryna get their hands on a new Toyota, I would be fairly certain you are gonna start recommending this place too! Awesome spot! Much love.
