Hi,

This is informal wording.

For that reason, I'd accept B, C and D.

The semi-colon in A adds a degree of formality to the writing that seems out of place.

The semicolon used in A was originally there. I personally would have used a comma and said " at home. at my place or at the pub...". If we verbally apply these words in a sentnence, all would seem acceptable. But I think the question was which is correct.
