Is there a way to add a keyboard shortcuts to items in the context menu (the menu that pops up when you right click) in Gnome Files? Specifically, I want to give "Open in Terminal" a keyboard shortcut.

Unfortunately, there is no option to customize shortcuts in Gnome Files nor any other Gnome application. However, for your specific question on how to implement a shortcut for "Opening Terminal Here", there is a good workaround here (answer by amartin1911) that still works in Ubuntu 20.04 (using it myself since a few years).
It involves creating a nautilus-script for opening the terminal. Nautilus scripts can be bound to a shortcut key.

I was hoping for a solution that wouldn't add an additional item to the context menu. But this will work fine. Thanks – Ram Aug 28 '20 at 07:18
