All Ashore earns a perfect five stars in the Irish Times, which calls it "a thrilling marriage of head and heart." Reviewer Joe Breen says "it is Punch Brothers' ability to strike an endlessly fascinating conversation between the two that makes them among the greatest exponents of acoustic music around today." The Independent gives All Ashore four stars. It's "an album of rich instrumentation and understated beauty that reveals deeper nuances on each and every listen," writes reviewer Dave Beech. "A breath of fresh Appalachian air. Both forward-thinking and imbued with an appreciation of the traditional sounds of America ..."

The Boston Globe says: "Punch Brothers have crafted a deeply meaningful and downright gorgeous record that takes the world for what it is, but doesn’t use that as an excuse to give up." "It’s a lovely way to find beauty in chaos, a safe port in our increasingly tumultuous times," says Newsday.
