In his retrospective review for Allmusic, critic Bruce Eder wrote, "Coast To Coast opens strong and it gets better, blooming into an amazingly diverse yet consistently powerful record made up entirely of group originals... Had there been an actual rock press in 1964, or if the Dave Clark Five been taken more seriously sooner, Coast To Coast would probably be regarded today as something close to an essential British Invasion record..."[2]
Cash Box said of the single "Everybody Knows (I Still Love You)" that it has "an interesting cool quality and a good dance rhythm" and it "can't miss."[3]
