The album received positive reviews from music critics. AllMusic critic Paul Simpson gave a positive review, describing Midnight Snack as "a decent, creative late-night downer record that finds Sagar successfully incorporating new elements into Homeshake's sound, resulting in the project's most assured material yet."[3] Exclaim!'s Cosette Schulz wrote: "These recordings are bare bones, just Sagar, a synth and a drum machine, and the easy-listening simplicity makes it all the more enjoyable."[4]
