Final answer:

The pilgrims from Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales met at The Tabard Inn before their journey.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pilgrims mentioned in the posed question refer to the characters in Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, who met at B. The Tabard Inn before starting their journey to Canterbury. The confusion may arise because the term 'pilgrims' is also historically used to refer to the group of English settlers who landed at Plymouth in 1620. However, it seems to be about Chaucer's literary work, which predates the settling of Plymouth by several centuries.
