Following Eileen’s passing in late 2025 and her funeral in early 2026, this gathering at her beloved pub brings family, friends, neighbours, and the Deptford community together to celebrate her life.
Led by Father Grant, the service will include musical tributes and a reflection on her peaceful passing, now reunited with her beloved Charlie.
All are warmly invited to stay afterwards for a traditional Irish music session, with food and refreshments provided.

It is with great sadness, but also with a sense of comfort knowing she is now at peace, that we announce the passing of Eileen Gallagher.
Eileen, The beloved landlady and the founding mother of The Dog and Bell, dedicated many years to creating a warm and welcoming environment for all who walked through its doors.
Her legacy is deeply woven into the fabric of our community, and her spirit will forever remain a part of The Dog and Bell. For those who had the privilege of knowing her, Eileen’s kindness, hospitality, and steadfast dedication will never be forgotten.
Eileen is now reunited with her dear Charlie. Our thoughts are with her family and all those whose lives she touched.
Further details regarding arrangements will be shared in due course.

✨ Thank You, Deptford! ✨
Last week’s Santa Sleigh through Deptford High Street was nothing short of magical. From the very first cheer to the moment Santa lit up the Christmas lights at the Dog & Bell, the heart and spirit of Deptford shone brighter than ever. 🎅🌟
A massive thank you to all the local businesses who took part — your support and festive energy helped bring the whole high street to life. And to our incredible elves, volunteers, and everyone working behind the scenes, your hard work made every moment possible. 🧝♂️🧝♀️
Thank you for showing up, joining in, and making this event one to remember. Here’s to many more magical moments together. ❤️🎄

Dog & Bell SE8, located on Prince Street in London, is a must-visit for anyone looking for a great pub or beer bar experience. This establishment has recently been awarded 1st place by South East London Camra, which is a testament to the quality of their offerings. The staff and customers are amazing, and they are committed to providing the best possible experience for everyone who walks through their doors.
