Joshua Andre in his 365 Days of Inspiring Media review, described the album as being more cohesive than Elevation Worship's previous releases such as Graves into Gardens and Hallelujah Here Below, declaring that "Old Church Basement stands tall amongst quite a lot of worship albums from this year- both Elevation Worship and Maverick City Music deserve to be congratulated, and to be proud of themselves."[20] Timothy Yap, reviewing for JubileeCast, gave a favourable review of the album, saying: "Old Church Basement, as the title suggests, isn't an exercise of glamor and applause. Rather, it's worship music that is personal, biblical, and heartfelt."[21] Yap noted however, that the track length of the songs and them being mostly ballads were the major weaknesses of the record, opining that the listening experience "can be on the taxing and tedious side."[21] Kayleigh Fongers gave a favourable review of the album for The Banner, saying "So what's the secret to the album's success? It's safe to say that the answer lies in its refreshing simplicity. The style is intimate, and most of the songs draw on transparent biblical truths. It's an unfiltered and personal worship experience."[22]
