Budgeting for Japan: Realistic daily spend for food and transport *outside* Tokyo?

Planning my first trip to Japan next spring, focusing on Kyoto, Osaka, and Hakone. I'm trying to finalize my budget, but finding conflicting info online regarding daily costs for food and local transport in these areas, excluding expensive bullet trains. What's a realistic daily average I should factor in for meals and getting around without breaking the bank? Any tips for saving money on these would be incredibly helpful!
