Rick Anderson of AllMusic called Honey, I'm Homely! "excellent," writing that "the Dance Hall Crashers succeed by worrying about tunes first and rhythmic signifiers second (if at all)."[2] NME deemed it a "jumpy, fidgety, fun album," noting that "the amazing thing is how few tracks here descend into cliché."[3]
