Taste of Country gave the single a positive review, comparing it favorably to previous single "Love Me Like You Mean It" and praising the song's levity. "This airy track is never weighted down with too much emotion," writes the blog, "so even those who can't relate can at least appreciate something fun." John Freeman of Nash Country Weekly wrote Ballerini is Taylor Swift's "pop-country heir apparent," comparing the song to Swift's "Should've Said No" for its playful, sassy, and melodic elements. In 2017, Billboard contributor Chuck Dauphin put "Dibs" at number eight on his top 10 list of Ballerini's best songs.
