> Right-click on directory > Services > New Terminal at Folder.

Note that you can also bind a hotkey to this! And in general in macOS, you can a bind to a hotkey to any menu item in any application.

Search "keyboard shortcuts" in settings, then under Services -> Files and Folders.

To add to this:

cdf: aliased to cd "$(pfd)"

Doesn't really open a new Terminal, but usually, that's not what I want to happen anyway.

except Excel's ribbon menu items. As far as I know there's no method to hotkey those like ALT+[<letter>] on windows. Same for Outlook's categorize email function.

That's because Microsoft has never used Apple's SDKs for their window widgets...

Those are not "menu items" as generally understood in macOS.
