Italians find people who drink a cappuccino after about 11 in the morning a source of amusement. It's a dead giveaway that the person in question is a foreigner.

The good side: they're amused but not rude or snotty about it.

I once ordered a cappuccino after 11, I got something else instead (I believe an espresso/americano?) and I was really confused as I thought the barista had misheard me. Then someone explained it to me afterwards and I felt kind of silly

Why is that something to feel silly about? I would think that if it is your harmless custom it is rude for someone with a different custom to make something negative out of it.

Some of us gave up the fight and will now have a cappuccino whenever. (Paese che vai, usanze che trovi.)
