Simon Coffey from 13th Floor called Flowers "a fun album, full of energy, hooks and good quality indie Aussie rock". [10]
Tabitha Wilson from New Sounds felt that "Flowers, for a debut album, is a very impressive piece of work. It is repetitive at times, and it is evident that Pacific Avenue are still discovering their own sound, but that is to be expected – and they definitely have a promising future ahead of them." [11]
Triple J said the group "have produced a sun soaked, rock 'n' roll record that seamlessly mixes new ideas with classic sounds, delivering a record that feels instantly memorable, uplifting and joyous." [12]
