Andrew Leahey of AllMusic rated the album four out of five stars with this comment: "Elsie functions  best as a display of Fallon’s underused bottom register and acoustic songwriting skills, proving that slowing things down once in a while can still be a punk rock move." Writing for "Alternative Press", Scott Heisel writes "Elsie" is "better than just about everything the Gaslight Anthem have done to date. Perfect for night drives on long, winding roads."
