The magazine also hosts regular events such as Brooklyn Uncorked and Good Spirits Brooklyn as well as short videos and interviews called Edible Films. The publication received a James Beard Foundation Award in 2010 for its food-related columns. Editor Rachel Wharton authored Edible Brooklyn: The Cookbook in 2011.

The magazine is published five times a year and available online, through subscription or for free at selected Brooklyn retailers Edible Brooklyn is part of the Edible Media network and has subscribers in all 50 states and distributed in several Barnes & Noble stores.
