About Us
Savages Mussels was set up in 2018 by Jamie Savage.
His love for mussels and seafood inspired him to start getting his ideas down for the day he took the chance and bit the bullet to start operating as Savages Mussels.
Jamie was trained as a Chef in 2005 in the Royal Navy where he tried food from all over the world and catered for 200 shipmates onboard HMS Northumberland for 6 years before heading into the Hotel catering industry.Â
Moving to Macclesfield in 2013, Jamie found himself working in various restaurants and testing out some of his recipes. In 2016 Jamie was working as a private chef for VVIP Clients flying in the private sector from a number of Airports around the North.
It's here that Jamie found time to start setting up Savages Mussels, the time felt right with the food scene changing and people were hungry for something different.Â
After a few pop-ups in Macclesfield, the word was out and a couple of months later he was popping up in locations around Manchester and landed permanent spots at Altrincham Market and Macclesfield Treacle Market.
With the success of all this, Jamie was offered an opportunity that he couldn't resist, to open up permanently and full time at the new food hall in Macclesfield, Picturedrome.
Jamie started showcasing everything that he has got, balancing Street Food with the Restaurant dining experience in his own unique way using Mussels & Seafood.
In November 2022, Jamie left Picturedrome and moved into Red Willow Macclesfield to run the kitchen there with his Seafood menu and Pizzas.
With Jamie's dreams always being to own his own Restaurant & Bar, an opportunity came to take on a premises on Church Street, Macclesfield, directly opposite Macclesfield Train Station which is due to open on 17th November.
He will be opening as SAVAGES MUSSELS BAR, serving Seafood, Vegetarian and Vegan dishes.
You can expect a lunch menu, all day market menu, evening menu, Drinks & Cocktails in a buzzing atmosphere.
