To eat the best thing is to go to the cafeteria. You can get a Bocadillo and a drink for 1.20€ or a full 3 course meal for round about 4€.
For cash I would suggest you dispense it two or three times a month in a lump sum to save on transaction fees.

I'm still living with my parents so they are paying all the things that during the erasmus exchange I were obligated to pay. But I was prepared for it. I work before to have savings for erasmus.
