We asked, you answered. Here’s where you’d take Zach on a date in GA if you were Charity on ‘The Bachelor.’

Next week on “The Bachelor,” it’s hometown dates week.

That means the women will take the driver’s seat and lead Zach Shallcross to their hometowns to meet their family, friends and go on a date showcasing where they grew up.

Charity Lawson’s date will take place in Columbus, Georgia. We asked you where they should go to share a meal together–and boy, did you deliver.

Some of you had some fun, unique options in mind:

“I think they should have a fun date on Pedal Pub Columbus! This would add an exciting fun atmosphere that’s different from the traditional date in Columbus,” said Antwane Darby.

“Have her parents fix a southern meal with barbecue ribs from Chester’s. The best ribs in Columbus,” said Victoria Pierce.

And some of you gave us all the heart eyes just thinking of how perfect the date could be:

“The newest and most amazing place - Millhouse Bar and Grill,” said Leslie Robertson. “They have upscale southern comfort food . . . and have private dining areas available [that] overlook the river.”

We received several votes for Mabella’s and Epic Restaurant was a close second.

Here’s the full list of restaurants you voted for Charity to take Zach to on their date:

• Denim & Oak

• Country’s BBQ

• Cook’s Place Hot Dogs

• Minnie’s Uptown

• Vertigo

• Saltcellar

• Trevioli at the Rapids

• 11th and Bay

• Caffe Amici

• Rosehill Seafood

• Morten’s at Old Town

• Ruth Ann’s Restaurant

The hometown episode will air Monday, March 13, on ABC.
