Upon its release, Warm on a Cold Night received generally positive reviews from music critics. Writing for AllMusic, Liam Martin gave the album 4 out of 5 stars and highlighted the tracks, "Warm on a Cold Night", "Someone That Loves You" and "Treat You Right".[4] Lisa Henderson from Clash magazine called the album as "an irresistible piece of steamy electro-soul" and gave the album an 8 out of 10,[1] while Kitty Empire from The Observer called it "danceable, but not braindead".[8] Writing for NOW Magazine, Paula Reid gave the album 3 out of 5 stars, saying, "Andy and James stepped deeper into their own sound, with more inventive lyrics and dynamic melodies." Reid also noted the 1970s and 1980s soul and funk influences in the album.[7] The Guardian gave a mixed review of the album, saying, "a studied sort of soul that belongs more in a Spotify aggregated playlist than on a sleazy late-night radio show."[6]

Liam McNeilly from DIY Magazine gave the album 2 out of 5 stars, saying, "Honne’s debut could be a triumph, but finds itself prone to mumbling and shallowness."[5]
