Tapas, tapas, tapas.
cafeterias are also good and cheap, their version of diner.
most places offered water in bottles, still or sparkling, learn to say "un jarra de agua" Ha-rra, not Jar-ra.
Bocadillos, sandwiches, no such thing as "piled high" with meat, but still good and inexpensive and available all over.
wine, drink lots of wine. it's cheap. sometimes ordering a caña (small cup) of wine, they handed us a small cup and the whole bottle and didn't care if you finished the bottle.
be prepared for smokey bars. they don't exist in lots of places in the US anymore, but they are all over Spain.
have fun. I can't wait to go back.
