There's no built-in shortcut.
You can create one using Tools/Customize Keyboard... Categories:Table, Commands: TableMergeCells
For merge cells in Microsoft word, Select cells, press Alt+A for Table, and press M for Merge Cells. For eg. two cells in same row of a table need to be merged, select those two cells, click Alt+A and then press M for merge cells.
There is a way to do is select cells and press Alt + A and release both keys and press M.
I'm not sure does it work in office for Mac,
alt+c then press m;
To activate the table menu, on my kbd it was Alt+T
