I don't think a minuscule amount of likes is embarrassing. People expect that for a small local business. The big difference is that those likes really count for something - 13 likes at a local chip shop probably means 13 people who go there once a week.

There's a Chinese restaurant near me, and whenever I walk past it's always empty, with the owner/manager standing there with a long, sad face. I feel guilty about always looking in and never entering, but part of my brain tells me there must be some reason that nobody else is in there.
Or the 13 employees who work there.
