Critical reception
Simon Coffey from 13th Floor called Flowers "a fun album, full of energy, hooks and good quality indie Aussie rock".

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."

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."
